(16)/(y+7)= 4/3

\frac{16}{y + 7} = \frac{4}{3}

y = 5

Solution steps

\frac{16}{y + 7} = \frac{4}{3}

Cross multiply

48 = (y + 7) \cdot 4

Switch sides

(y + 7) \cdot 4 = 48

Divide both sides by

4

y + 7 = 12

Move

7

to the right side

y = 5

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

y = - 7

Combine undefined points with solutions:

y = 5

30 = \frac{6 ( x - 1 )}{5 + 2 x}

\frac{100}{360} = \frac{5 π}{x}

- 3 = x + \frac{3}{x}

\frac{1}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x - 2} = 1

\frac{x}{x + 4} = \frac{6}{5}
