Question

Multi-Step Literal Equations

Solve the following equation for b. Be sure to take into account whether a letter is capitalized or not.
t+1/2b=Y

Answer 1

`\\ \sf\longmapsto t+(1)/(2)b=Y`

• take t right side

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (1)/(2)b=Y-t`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (b)/(2)=Y-t`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto b=2(Y-t)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto b=2Y-2t`
