Solve y=3-x/2-1.5

$$y = \frac{ 3-x }{ 2 } -1.5$$

Solve for x

$$x=-2y$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide each term of 3-x by 2 to get \frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2}x.

$$y=\frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2}x-1.5$$

Subtract 1.5 from \frac{3}{2} to get 0.

$$y=-\frac{1}{2}x$$

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

$$-\frac{1}{2}x=y$$

Multiply both sides by -2.

$$\frac{-\frac{1}{2}x}{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{y}{-\frac{1}{2}}$$

Dividing by -\frac{1}{2} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{1}{2}.

$$x=\frac{y}{-\frac{1}{2}}$$

Divide y by -\frac{1}{2} by multiplying y by the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{2}.

$$x=-2y$$

Solve for y

$$y=-\frac{x}{2}$$

Solution Steps

Divide each term of 3-x by 2 to get \frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2}x.

$$y=\frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2}x-1.5$$

Subtract 1.5 from \frac{3}{2} to get 0.

$$y=-\frac{1}{2}x$$
