Question

how can i solve this equation 2x-3y=10?

Answer 1

You can't solve for x and y with just that single expression. However, you can graph it by putting it in the slope form y=mx+b

 

2x-3y=10

 

Subtract -2x from both sides

 

-3y= -2x+10

 

Divide both sides by -3

 

y= 2/3x - 10/3

 

To graph, plug in values for x like -2,-1,0,1,2. Then compute the y-value and plot the coordinates on the  graph.
