Answer:

Solve for x.

Step 1: Add y to both sides.

2x−y+y=120+y

2x=y+120

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{y+120}{2}[/tex]

x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]y + 60

solve for y.

Step 1: Add -2x to both sides.

2x−y+−2x=120+−2x

−y=−2x+120

Step 2: Divide both sides by -1

[tex]\frac{-y}{-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-2x + 120}{-1}[/tex]

y=2x−120
