How do you solve for y ? 16x+9=9y-2x Algebra Linear Equations Equations with Variables on Both Sides 1 Answer Jordan · Stefan V. May 11, 2018 #y = 2x + 1# Explanation: #16x + 9 = 9y -2x# Move terms so #y# is on its own #9y = 18x + 9# Divide both sides by #9# to get #y# #(9y)/9 = (18x)/9 + 9/9# So #y = 2x + 1# Answer link Related questions How do you check solutions to equations with variables on both sides?
