Question

Rw/6+y=f And I have to solve for y so I’m confused on how to isolate it.

Answer 1

The answer is

`y = (rw - 6f)/(f)`

Explanation:

`(rw)/(6 + y) = f`

Cross multiply

We have

f(6 + y) = rw

6f + fy = rw

Move 6f to the right side of the equation to make fy stand alone

That's

fy = rw - 6f

Divide both sides by f to isolate y

That's

`(fy)/(f) = (rw - 6f)/(f)`

We have the final answer as

`y = (rw - 6f)/(f)`

Hope this helps you
