Well you are solving for Y so you have to get y by itself. So in order to do that you must multiply both sides by 3/2. You do this because you need to get 2/3 on the other side. So just multiply -12 and 2/3 and you'll get y=-18. You can check this by plugging -18 into your original equation. So 2/3y=-12 will become 2/3(-18)=-12. If the you got the correct answer then you should get -12=-12.

Find the rectangular coordinates of the point ( -3, 1/2 π)

alexdok [17]

Answer:

$x = -3 cos (\frac{\pi}{2})= 0$

$y = -3 sin (\frac{\pi}{2})= -3$

And then the rectangular coordinates for this case are :

$(x = 0 , y = -3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following point given $P = (-3, \frac{\pi}{2})$ and we want to conver from polar to rectangular coordinates and we need to use the following formulas:
