anonymous · Answer

$$4x-\frac{ 5 }{ y }=2z$$

anonymous · Answer

i have to solve for x

anonymous · Answer

Multiply through with y to remove fraction

anonymous · Answer

is it the kind where what you do to one side you do to the other

anonymous · Answer

Yeah. Don't think too much about it. Just multiply everything by y

anonymous · Answer

ok

anonymous · Answer

im getting confused

anonymous · Answer

Can you multiply 4x by y, then the next term. Don't be confused, just multiply by y

anonymous · Answer

Yea just multiply by y

anonymous · Answer

Wait, scratch that. You just need to solve on x. So don't multiply by y because is not a part of the fraction. Just put the x on one side and everything else on the other side. (Forget what I said about multiply by y, no need for that here.)

anonymous · Answer

kk  so instead of y it would be x

anonymous · Answer

Keep x on the left, put every thing else on the right.

anonymous · Answer

ok but will it look like this x=4-5/y-2z

anonymous · Answer

Actually, the first step would look like this$$4x=\frac{ 5 }{ y }+2z$$

anonymous · Answer

kk what does the second step look like o ya i just want to say thank you for helping me

anonymous · Answer

You have to get rid of the 4. Divide everything by 4.

anonymous · Answer

ok so it will look like this $$\frac{ x=5/y+2z }{ 4 }$$
