Question

x=1/(3y+5)

Answer 1

isolate y \[x=\frac{ 1 }{ 3y+5 }\]

Answer 2

Multiply both the sides by (3y + 5) first...

Can you do that??

Answer 3

I am expecting a reply from your side @sgta101

Answer 4

sry i was afk, so \[3xy+5x+1\]

Answer 5

*\[3xy+5x=1\]

Answer 6

There is no need of multiply x with it, just leave it in factor form:
\[x(3y + 5) = 1\]

Okay? Getting??

Answer 7

kk

Answer 8

Now divide by x both the sides..

Answer 9

Go ahead...

Answer 10

ahh i see, so\[3y+5=1/x\]

Answer 11

Yep.... :)

Good going..

Now Subtract 5 from both the sides and tell me where you arrive..

Answer 12

\[3y=\frac{ 1 }{ x }-5\]

Answer 13

What are you being asked to do?

Answer 14

isolate y

Answer 15

Well starting from here
3xy + 5x = 1
I want to bring everything without y to the right side.

Answer 16

okay

Answer 17

So, what do you get?

Answer 18

\[y=\frac{ 1 }{ x3}-\frac{ 5 }{ 3 }\]

Answer 19

?

Answer 20

Yeah, that's correct, actually. Except, write it this way instead, the way you wrote it bothers me :)

\[y=\frac{ 1 }{ 3x}-\frac{ 5 }{ 3 }\]

Answer 21

lol

Answer 22

sry about that

Answer 23

Good job, though.

Answer 24

can i simplify it further?

Answer 25

No. Unless you want only one fraction bar, in which case, it becomes
\[y=\frac{ 1-5x }{ 3x}\]

Answer 26

k that's what i meant

Answer 27

thanks for the help

Answer 28

No problem :)
