Question

Solve for y

x=2y^2-6y+1

Answer 1

you'll need two equations to get y...unless x = 0 or you're looking for y INTERCEPT..

Answer 2

The original equation was y=-2x-6x+1 and I want to find the inverse

Answer 3

I am stuck at x-1/2=y^2-6y

Answer 4

complte the square on the right side...

Answer 5

hmm, I figured...

Answer 6

\[\frac{x-1}{2}+9=y^2-6y+9\]

Answer 7

yep...

Answer 8

And then what do I do, am I actually going to get a number for y or...?

Answer 9

Okay, thanks guys!

Answer 10

well that equation can be written as \(\large \frac{x−1+18}{2}=(y−3)^2\)
then take the square root of both sides... and like lgb said, you'll have two expressions, positive and negative.

Answer 11

yw...:)
