Question

Solve the equation for y. Leave your answer in terms of π.

π=7x−2y

Answer 1

7x = π + 2y
7x - π =2y
y = (7x - π) / 2

Answer 2

The value of the equation for y is
`y=(-\pi+7x)/(2)`.

Explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

`\pi=7x-2y`

We need to solve the equation for y.

Subtract 7x to both sides of the equation.

`\pi-7x=7x-7x-2y`

`\pi-7x=-2y`

Divide both the sides by -2.

`(\pi-7x)/(-2)=(-2y)/(-2)`

`y= (\pi-7x)/(-2)`

`y=(-\pi+7x)/(2)`

Hence, the value of the equation for y is
`y=(-\pi+7x)/(2)`.
