Answer:

please see explanation below

Explanation:

Let's solve for x.

16x+9=9y−2x

Step 1: Add 2x to both sides.

16x+9+2x=−2x+9y+2x

18x+9=9y

Step 2: Add -9 to both sides.

18x+9+−9=9y+−9

18x=9y−9

Step 3: Divide both sides by 18.

18x /18 = 9y−9 /18

x= 1 /2y+ (−1 /2)

Answer:

1/2y+(-1/2)

OR

Let's solve for y.

16x+9=9y−2x

Step 1: Flip the equation.

−2x+9y=16x+9

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−2x+9y+2x=16x+9+2x

9y=18x+9

Step 3: Divide both sides by 9.

9y /9 = 18x+9 /9

y=2x+1

Answer:

y=2x+1

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!! :)
