Full solution

Q. Solve for yy.\newline0=y+1140 = y + \frac{11}{-4}\newliney=y = _____\_\_\_\_\_
  1. Rewrite equation: Rewrite the equation to isolate the variable yy.0=y+1140 = y + \frac{11}{-4}To isolate yy, subtract 114\frac{11}{-4} from both sides.0114=y+1141140 - \frac{11}{-4} = y + \frac{11}{-4} - \frac{11}{-4}y=114y = -\frac{11}{-4}
  2. Isolate variable y: Simplify the right side of the equation.\newlineSince dividing by a negative is the same as multiplying by a negative, we can rewrite y as:\newliney=1×(114)y = -1 \times (-\frac{11}{4})\newliney=114y = \frac{11}{4}
