Question

Solve M = 2x + 3y for y

Answer 1

M=2x+3y
Your goal should be to isolate y on one side

Answer 2

y=13

Answer 3

so it would be

M - 2x = 2x + 3y -2x
Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation
M - 2x = 3y

(M-2x)/3=3y/3
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
(M-2x)/3=y

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

Answer 4

y=13?

Answer 5

@Trexy answer seems very reasonable. I really don't think you can get a numerical value from this equations so y=13 seems out of question.

Answer 6

Thanks

Answer 7

lol Im sorry haha wrong problem disregard "y=13'

Answer 8

so Im wrong
sorry..
well okay.

Answer 9

Wait! Is it actually? At a quick glance it looked fine to me! Let me have a closer look.

Answer 10

@Trexy you're correct with the y=(M-2x)/3 solution.

Answer 11

Ok.. Sorry..
