what is the answer to 5x-4y=2 solve for y

Question

i need the answer now if possible

Answer 1

5x - 4y = 2             Add 4y to both sides

5x = 4y + 2            Subtract 2 from both sides

5x - 2 = 4y             Divide both sides by 4

5x/4 - 1/2 = y

Answer 2

Hi Andrew,

To solve for y, we use the rules of Algebra:

   Given:     5x - 4y = 2
                    -4y = 2 – 5x     (subtract 5x from both sides, so they are still equal)
                     4y = 5x – 2       (multiply both sides by -1)
                     y =  (5x -2)/4   (divide both sides by 4; use parentheses because P-E-M-D-A-S)

Good luck !
