Solve for Y

OpenStudy (lynx):

\[a=\frac{ x+y+z }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (lynx):

\[y = a - 3x - z \] \[y = a - x - 3z \] \[y = 3a - x - z \]

OpenStudy (chrishogan):

So what do you think you need to do first?

OpenStudy (chrishogan):

So first we need to separate Y from the other variables. We do this by multiplying Y to both sides.|dw:1465404140243:dw| Now just solve. |dw:1465404376159:dw| Now we need to divide A from Y to get y =−x−z+3a
