ummm I am guess we wld follow what angela did
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats what im trying to go off of
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
\( M=2x+3y \)
\(M-2x=3y\)
\( \frac{M-2x} {3} =y \)
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
can you read what i did its a lil small
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah i see it
do you mind like explaining to me how you did it like steps and such so i can learn to do it on my own?

okk well you see we started off with the original equation
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
now we need to try to isolate y so first I brought over the 2x. So i subtracted 2x from both sides
M-2x=2x+3y-2x
M-2x=3y
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
and then i divided 3 from both sides
\( \huge\frac{M-2x} {3} = \frac{3y} {3} \)
\( \huge\frac{M-2x} {3} =y \)
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
and so Voila we have isolated our y
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
idk if u followed but i gotta go work I am nutssss
