Use transformations to solve the equation 2/3y = 18

y=27 and 27=y *The answer should be positive sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

multiplication property of equality is multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number does not change the equation.

a*c=b*c

division property of equality is dividing both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number does not change the equation.

a/c=b/c for c≠0

multiply by 3 both sides of an equation.

3*2/3y=18*3

simplify.

18*3=54

2y=54

divide by 2 both sides of an equation.

2y/2=54/2

simplify by equation.

54/2=27

27*2=54

54/27=2

2*27=54

y=27

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!
