Literal Equations and Formulas Practice

Solve for y:

y + 2 = 3x

• y = 2x + 3

• y= 3x +2

• y= 3x -2

• y= 6x

8x + 4y= 16

• y = -8x + 16

• y = 2x -4

• y = -2x + 4

• y = -8x + 12

Solve for the indicated variable.

• A = l/w

• w = l/A

• w = A

• w = A/l

Solve y - x = 5 for y.

• y = 5 + x

• y = -5 - x

• y = -5 + x

• y = 5 - x

Solve x = 3y - 24 for y.

• y = (x + 24)/3

• y = x/3 + 24

• y = 3x + 24

• y = 3(x + 24)

Solve -2 = 4x + y for y.

• y = -2 + 4x

• y = 2 - 4x

• y = -2 - 4x

• y = 2 + 4x

Solve -3y + 6x = 12 for y.

• y = 2x + 4

• y = 2x - 4

• y = -2x + 4

• y = -2x - 4

Solve 2y + 4x = 12 for y.

• y = -4x + 12

• y = -4x + 6

• y = -2x + 6

• y = -2x + 4

Solve m - n = 5 for m.

• m = 5 + n

• m = -5 - n

• m = -5 + n

• m = 5 - n

Solve x = w / a for w.

• w = a / x

• w = x / a

• w = ax

• x = wa
