What does isolating variables mean??

2 answers:

8 0

Isolating variables mean to get the variable, or the letter all by itself by doing something to get rid of the number/numbers that are on the same side. That way you can solve for that missing variable.

It means getting all the variables on one side and getting all the numbers on one side. For example:
3y=6(4)+12 x=4
/3 /3 /3
( I was trying to divide by three)
y=8+4
y=12
Hope this helps
