Question

Solve the following equation for y. ax+by=c

Answer 1

Isolate y. To do this, subtract 'ax' from both sides of your equation and simplify the result. Share your work, please.

Answer 2

mathmale; I don't think by=c-ax is correct.

Answer 3

To "isolate" a variable on one side of an equation means to get that variable "alone"

Answer 4

Right, it's not correct. Finish your work by dividing both sides of your equation by b.

This will isolate y.

y= ???

Answer 5

Solve "for y" means solve with reference to "y alone." :-)
