To find 'y', you must get it by itself in the equation. In order to do so, you need to get rid of other values on that side of the equation, while still making the expression equal the same. You need to "balance the equation". To do so, subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

y + 2 = x
- 2 -2
y = x - 2

Your simplest answer for this problem would be y = x - 2

Hope this helps!

Subtract 4 1/5 - 3/4

GaryK [48]

Change both fractions, so they have the same denomater

4 1/5= 4 4/20

3/4= 15/20

change the mixed number into an improper fraction

84/20Subtract 15 from 84

84-15=69

so you get 69/20

Hope this helped :)

Multiply.

Helen [10]

Okay. When it comes to multiplying decimals, you multiply them just like you would do whole numbers. However, solving them by paper, you would add a decimal point into the answer, depending on how many numbers are behind the decimal point in the numbers being multiplied. In this case, the decimal point will go in front of two numbers, because there are two numbers behind the decimal point in -1.2 and 0.4. Know that the answer will be negative, because there is one negative and one positive number.
Multiply both numbers. -1.2 * 0.4 is -0.48. There. The product is -0.48.
