Answer 1

Do you know how to isolate the variable y?

Answer 2

no i dont :(

Answer 3

Well the idea is to get rid of whatever is in the denominator. Do you know how to do that?

The basic idea is you want to get y by itself.

Answer 5

It's okay :) . Remember. o get rid of a denominator multiply both sides by the same number. The denominator then cancels out.

Answer 6

so x/2 = 2

Multiply by 2 on both sides to get:

x=4
