Question

c equals fraction numerator x over denominator y end fraction The given equation relates the variables c, x, and y, where c > 0, x > 0, and y > 0. Which equation correctly expresses y in terms of c and x ?

  1. y equals c x    
  2. y equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator c x end fraction    
  3. y equals fraction numerator c over denominator x end fraction    
  4. y equals fraction numerator x over denominator c end fraction    

The correct answer is: y equals fraction numerator x over denominator c end fraction


    We use simple algebraic manipulations to solve the problem.
    Explanation:
    Step 1 of 1:
    The given equation is— c equals fraction numerator x over denominator y end fraction, where c greater than 0, x greater than 0, y greater than 0.
    rightwards double arrow y c equals fraction numerator x over denominator y end fraction cross times y equals x , (by multiplying both sides with y)
    rightwards double arrow y equals fraction numerator x over denominator c end fraction , (by dividing both sides by c)
    The above expression is defined since c greater than 0.
    Final Answer:
    The right option is — y equals fraction numerator x over denominator c end fraction.
