Q. Solve for y y . Express your answer as a proper or improper fraction in simplest terms.\newline112y12=12 \frac{1}{12} y-\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{1}{2} \newlineAnswer: y= y=
  1. Isolate term containing y: First, we need to isolate the term containing yy on one side of the equation. To do this, we can add 12\frac{1}{2} to both sides of the equation to cancel out the 12-\frac{1}{2} on the right side and the 12-\frac{1}{2} on the left side.\newlineCalculation: 112y12+12=12+12\frac{1}{12}y - \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}
  2. Simplify the equation: After adding (12)(\frac{1}{2}) to both sides, the equation simplifies to: (\frac{\(1\)}{\(12\)})y = \(0
  3. Multiply by reciprocal: Now, to solve for yy, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 112\frac{1}{12}, which is 1212.\newlineCalculation: 12×(112)y=12×012 \times \left(\frac{1}{12}\right)y = 12 \times 0
  4. Final solution: Multiplying both sides by 1212 gives us: y=0y = 0
