Solving Equations, Part II    [Show All Solutions]

Solve each of the following equations for y.

 

1.  

Show Solution

Here all we need to do is get all the y’s on one side, factor a y out and then divide by the coefficient of the y.

 

 

Solving equations for one of the variables in it is something that you’ll be doing on occasion in a Calculus class so make sure that you can do it.

 

2.  

Show Solution

This one solves the same way as the previous problem.

 

 

 

3.  

Show Solution

Same thing, just be careful with the last step.

 

Don’t forget the “  ” in the solution!
