Solve a^2y=10

$$a ^ { 2 } y = 10$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{10}{a^{2}}$$

$$a\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

The equation is in standard form.

$$a^{2}y=10$$

Divide both sides by a^{2}.

$$\frac{a^{2}y}{a^{2}}=\frac{10}{a^{2}}$$

Dividing by a^{2} undoes the multiplication by a^{2}.

$$y=\frac{10}{a^{2}}$$

Solve for a (complex solution)

$$a=-\sqrt{10}y^{-\frac{1}{2}}$$

$$a=\sqrt{10}y^{-\frac{1}{2}}\text{, }y\neq 0$$

Solve for a

$$a=\sqrt{\frac{10}{y}}$$

$$a=-\sqrt{\frac{10}{y}}\text{, }y>0$$
