Solve y=7/14-x

$$y = \frac { 7 } { 14 - x }$$

Solve for x

$$x=14-\frac{7}{y}$$

$$y\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 14 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by -x+14.

$$y\left(-x+14\right)=7$$

Use the distributive property to multiply y by -x+14.

$$-yx+14y=7$$

Subtract 14y from both sides.

$$-yx=7-14y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$\left(-y\right)x=7-14y$$

Divide both sides by -y.

$$\frac{\left(-y\right)x}{-y}=\frac{7-14y}{-y}$$

Dividing by -y undoes the multiplication by -y.

$$x=\frac{7-14y}{-y}$$

Divide 7-14y by -y.

$$x=14-\frac{7}{y}$$

Variable x cannot be equal to 14.

$$x=14-\frac{7}{y}\text{, }x\neq 14$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{7}{14-x}$$

$$x\neq 14$$
