Question

Find the value of y in the equation 3/y-2=8

Answer 1

y=3/10 or 3

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = 3 / 10, or 0.3

Explanation:

multiply both sides by (y - 2).

3 = 8(y - 2) [Distribute and solve.]

3 = 8y - 16

19 = 8y

y = 19 / 8 = 2 3/8 = 2.375

then y = 3 / 10, or 0.3

hope this helps:)sorry if it doesnt
