Solve for y.

Question

7/y+4 = 6/5

Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 1

To solve for y, we first cross-multiply:

7/y+4 = 6/5

7*5 = 6(y+4)

35 = 6y + 24

Then, we isolate y by subtracting 24 from both sides:

35 - 24 = 6y

11 = 6y

Finally, we solve for y by dividing both sides by 6:

y = 11/6

Therefore, the solution for y is y = 11/6.
