----------------------
"getting y by itself" means getting it on one side of the equal sign.
Do what it take to do that.
----
2x-3y=9
Add 3y to both sides.
Divide by 3.
======================
x+2y-4=0
Add 4
subtract x
divide by 2
====================
3x+4y=12
similar to the 2 above.

xy-x^2=-20
x-2y=3 --> y = (x-3)/2
---------
xy-x^2=-20
Sub for y
x%2A%28x-3%29%2F2+-+x%5E2+=+-20
x%2A%28x-3%29+-+2x%5E2+=+-40
x%5E2+%2B+3x+-+40+=+0
(x+8)*(x-5) = 0
x = -8, y = -5.5
x = 5, y = 1

--------------
h(t) increases with t, there's no max.
It goes up, never comes down.


Rectangles/677470: Find the dimensions that give the largest area for the rectangle. Its base is on the x-axis and its other two vertices are above the x-axis, lying on the parabola y=8-x^2

Find the dimensions that give the largest area for the rectangle. Its base is on the x-axis and its other two vertices are above the x-axis, lying on the parabola y=8-x^2
-------------
It's symmetrical about the y-axis, so find the max area on the + side.
Area = x*y = x*(8-x^2) = 8x - x^3
dA/dx = 8 - 3x^2 = 0
x = sqrt(8/3) = 2sqrt(6)/3
--> y = 16/3
------------
Whole rectangle is 4sqrt(6)/3 by 16/3

Simple price asking problem. Is my set up for, "The price of a car with 18% discount is $19,680. What was the original price of the car?
---------------------------
Price - 18% = Price*82% = 0.82*Price
----
0.82*Price = 19680
Price = 19680/0.82
Price = $24000

The perimeter of a rectangle is 152cm. The width is 35cm. Find the length.
--------------
P = 2W + 2L
152 = 2*35 + 2L = 70 + 2L
2L = 82
L = 41 cm
