(-4/5)y-(+5)=27

OpenStudy (natsent06):

what is y

OpenStudy (kobeni-chan):

First, change the -(+5) part to -5. Then, add 5 to each side. This will give you (-4/5)y=32 Multiply each side by 5 to get rid of the fraction by y

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

or just divide both sides by -4/5

OpenStudy (kobeni-chan):

This will give you -4y = 160 Then, divide by -4 to get y by itself Yeah you could divide by -4/5 too, I just happen to prefer breaking it down a little more

OpenStudy (natsent06):

so y would =

OpenStudy (natsent06):

-40

OpenStudy (natsent06):

?

OpenStudy (kobeni-chan):

yup
