Answer:

B

Explanation:

The correct formula given is:


Ax+By=c

We need to solve for y. First, we isolate the "y" term:


Ax+By=c\\By=c-Ax

Now, there's a "B" with y, to isolate the "y", we need to divide both sides by "B" and get "y":


By=c-Ax\\(By)/(B)=(c-Ax)/(B)\\y=(c-Ax)/(B)

Answer choice B is right.
