If x + 2 / 2 = y + 9/9, then x/2 =

3 answers

y + 7/9.

To solve for x/2, we first need to isolate x on one side of the equation.

Starting with the given equation:

x + 2/2 = y + 9/9

We can simplify the left side by adding the fractions:

x + 1 = y + 1

Next, we can isolate x by subtracting 1 from both sides:

x = y

Now we can substitute this value of x back into the original equation to solve for x/2:

(x/2) + 1 = (y + 9/9) / 2

Substituting x = y:

(y/2) + 1 = (y + 9/9) / 2

Multiplying both sides by 2:

y + 2 = y + 9/9

Subtracting y from both sides:

2 = 9/9

This is not a true statement, so there is no solution for x/2. The original equation must have been set up incorrectly.
How about using some parentheses, since writing 2/2 and 9/9 is kinds stupid ...
(x + 2) / 2 = (y + 9)/9
x/2 + 1 = y/9 + 1
x/2 = y/9
+ 1 - 1

x/2 = y/9

So the value of x/2 in terms of y is x/2 = y/9.
