Basic Math Examples

- y = 9

$- y = 9$

Step 1

Divide each term in

- y = 9

$- y = 9$ by

- 1

$- 1$ .

\frac{- y}{- 1} = \frac{9}{- 1}

$\frac{- y}{- 1} = \frac{9}{- 1}$

Step 2

Step 2.1

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

\frac{y}{1} = \frac{9}{- 1}

$\frac{y}{1} = \frac{9}{- 1}$

Step 2.2

Divide

y

$y$ by

1

$1$ .

y = \frac{9}{- 1}

$y = \frac{9}{- 1}$

y = \frac{9}{- 1}

$y = \frac{9}{- 1}$

Step 3

Simplify the right side.
