Question

Solve M = 2x + 3y for y.

Answer 1

3y = M - 2x
y = (M - 2x) / 3

Answer 2

how dis you get that? like what are the steps?

Answer 3

did*

Answer 4

first we need to rearrange so that 3y is on its own
you do this by subtracting 2x from both sides of the '=' sign
M - 2x = 2x - 2x + 3y
M - 2x = 3y
now divide both sides of equation by 3
3y/3 = (M - 2x) / 3
y = (M - 2x) / 3

the brackets are there to show that all the 'M-2x' is divided by 3
