Question

P=2(x+y) Solve for y

Answer 1

`\bf \implies \: y \: = (1)/(2) p - x`

Explanation:

Let's solve for y

• p = 2(x + y)

• p = 2x + 2y

• p - 2x = 2y

• 2y = p - 2x

• 
  `\bf \frac{ \cancel{2}y}{ \cancel{2}} = (p \: - \: 2x)/(2)`

• 
  `y = (p)/(2) - \frac{ \cancel{2}x}{ \cancel{2} }`

• 
  `\boxed{y = (1)/(2)p - x} \: \bf \mathfrak {ans}`
