x=(10)/y solve for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve for y means to isolate y by using inverse operations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I know. I forgot how

OpenStudy (debbieg):

you need to get y out of the denominator, so multiply both sides by y. What do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This will take two steps. First multiply both sides by y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

xy=10

OpenStudy (debbieg):

Good, now to isolate the y, divide both sides by x.
