How do you get -3/4 y to y by itself if you have the problem: -3/4 y = -1/2 x - 2?

Hi there!

Your answer is:

To isolate y that has a fraction, multiply by the inverse of the fraction! This is called the multiplicative inverse property!!

Y is equal to:

y = 2/3 x + 2 & 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Heres a break down of how to do this:

-3/4y = -1/2x -2

Multiply both sides by -4/3!

-4/3 × -3/4 = -12/12 (which equals -1!!)

y = -4/3 (-1/2x -2)

y = 2/3 x + 2 & 2/3

I hope this helps you! If you need clarification let me know!
