Question

y * (2/y) = 0

what does this simplify to?

Answer 1

\[y(\frac{2}{y}) \neq 0\]

Answer 2

is it y = 0 ?

Answer 3

no, it isn't,
as you see , since 2 \(\ne \)0 (after y's getting cancelled)
that equation does not have any solution

Answer 4

I probably should not of put it equal to zero, this is a small part of a larger problem, if is was to simplify this:

y(2/y)

what does that simplify to?

Answer 5

that would just be 2

Answer 6

ok, could u explain why:

I think it is this:

y(2/y)
2y/y
one of the y's cancel so u are left with y on top????
so answer is
y

Answer 7

y's cancel out and you are left with "2"
:)

Answer 8

ok, im thinking to hard on this one, thanks mate.

Answer 9

\(\dfrac{2\cancel y}{\cancel y}=2\)
welcome :)
