(6y - 11)(6y + 11) = ay² - b    |use (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

(6y)² - 11² =ay² - b

36y² - 121 = ay² - b    |add b to both sides

ay² = 36y² - 121 + b        |divide both sides by y² ≠ 0

a = (36y² - 121 + b)/y²

\boxed{a=\dfrac{36y^2-121+b}{y^2}}

How to solve 2x-1/2=3-x
ValentinkaMS [17]
To solve for x:
Move all the terms containing "x" to the left side of the equation. Do this by adding x to both sides.

2x+x=3x. The new equation is:
3x-1/2=3

Now, move all terms not containing "x" to the right side of the equation. Do this by adding 1/2 to both sides.
3x=3+1/2 The new equation is:
3x=3 1/2, or 3.5

The final step is to isolate x. To do so, divide each side by 3.
3x/3 = 3 1/2 /3 The new equation is:
x=1 1/6
