Solve 4.25=x*y

$$4.25 = x \cdot y$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{17}{4y}$$

$$y\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$xy=4.25$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$yx=4.25$$

Divide both sides by y.

$$\frac{yx}{y}=\frac{4.25}{y}$$

Dividing by y undoes the multiplication by y.

$$x=\frac{4.25}{y}$$

Divide 4.25 by y.

$$x=\frac{17}{4y}$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{17}{4x}$$

$$x\neq 0$$
