Question

Solve the literal equation for y.

Answer 1

`\huge y = (2B)/(mx) \\`

Explanation:

`B = (1)/(2) mxy \\`

Multiply through by 2 to eliminate the fraction

That's

`mxy = 2B`

Divide both sides by mx to make y stand alone

We have

`(mxy)/(mx) = (2B)/(mx) \\`

We have the final answer as

`y = (2B)/(mx) \\`

Hope this helps you

Answer 2

2B / (mx) = y

Explanation:

B = 1/2 mxy

Multiply each side by 2

2B = 2* 1/2 mxy

2B = mxy

Divide each side by mx

2B / (mx) = mxy / (mx)

2B / (mx) = y
