Solve for y: Ax%2BBy=C

Step 1. Subtract Ax from both sides of the equation to isolate y on left side

Ax%2BBy-Ax=C-Ax

By=-Ax%2BC

Step 2. Divide by B to both sides of the equation to get y.

By%2FB=-Ax%2FB%2BC%2FB

y=-Ax%2FB%2BC%2FB

Step 3. ANSWER: y=-Ax%2FB%2BC%2FB

I hope the above steps were helpful.
