You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First you must get all your \"team members\" to the correct side of the = sign.
\n" ); document.write( "(put the variable \"team\" on the other side of the = sign) remember when a number or variable changes sides, you have to change its value from positive to negitive and vise versa. It doesn't matter which way you go, but I prefer to make the variable positive.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4-2y=10-6y
\n" ); document.write( "would become
\n" ); document.write( "6y-2y=10-4 (did you see how I changed the +/- signs when I moved the equation)
\n" ); document.write( "4y=6 You must get rid of the 4 because it is not on the Variable \"team\" You
\n" ); document.write( " divide each side by 4 to get rid of the number in front of y.
\n" ); document.write( "y= 6/4 depending on what type of answer your instructor wants, change the 6/4.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " For example, my instructor always said this was far enough in college, but in high school they wanted us to reduce 6/4 = 3/2 or 1 1/2 . Some instructors want the decimal version of the answer. This is completely up to your instructor for his/her preference. If you need a decimal answer, divide 6 by 4 = 1.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Y= 6/4 or y = 3/2 or y= 1 & 1/2 or y= 1.5 One of these will be in the form your instructor likes. You are the only one who knows how they like you to show your answer... \n" ); document.write( "
