Question

$$2xy=18$$

Solve for x

$x=\frac{9}{y}$
$y\neq 0$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

The equation is in standard form.

$$2yx=18$$

Divide both sides by $2y$.

$$\frac{2yx}{2y}=\frac{18}{2y}$$

Dividing by $2y$ undoes the multiplication by $2y$.

$$x=\frac{18}{2y}$$

Divide $18$ by $2y$.

$$x=\frac{9}{y}$$

Show Solution

Solve for y

$y=\frac{9}{x}$
$x\neq 0$
