Solve for y:

5x - y = 9

1 answer

To solve for y, we can isolate y on one side of the equation.

Starting with the given equation:
5x - y = 9

We can move the term with y to the other side by adding y to both sides:
5x - y + y = 9 + y

Simplifying, we have:
5x = 9 + y

To isolate y, we can subtract 9 from both sides:
5x - 9 = 9 + y - 9
5x - 9 = y

Therefore, the equation can be rewritten as:
y = 5x - 9
