Question

Solve the equation for y. yp+yn=x

Answer 1

This is tricky because it has a lot of variables, but we just have to treat this problem normally.

$yp+yn=x$

separate y from p + n (feel free to check that you can do this by multiplying y out again and seeing that we have the same thing as before)

$y(p+n)=x$

divide p + n on both sides

$y = \frac{x}{p+n}$

Answer:

$y = \frac{x}{p+n}$
