Question

Solve 4(y - b)=x for y​

Answer 1

This is a literal equation. It is all about manipulating the variables so that y is isolated in term of all the other variables in this case.

4(y - b)=x

First divide the equation by 4.

y-b=x/4

Then add b.

y=x/4+b That is the answer!

Answer 2

y=b+x/4

Explanation:

4(y-b)=x

y-b=x/4

y=b+x/4
