Answer:


  • y=ab/(a+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, you need to solve for y in y + y/a = b, if s ≠ - 1.

This is how you do it step-by-step:

1. Multiply all the equation by the common denominator: a


y + y/a = b\\ \\ a(y + y/a = b)\\ \\ a(y + y/a) = ab

2. Simplify:


ay + ay/a = ab\\ \\ ay+y=ab

3. Common factor: y


y(a+1)=ab

4. Divide both sides by a + 1


y=ab/(a+1)
