Chapter 0.5, Problem 8E

To determine

To solve the equation $\frac{y}{7}=-11$

Answer to Problem 8E

  $y=-77$

Explanation of Solution

Given Information: $\frac{y}{7}=-11$

Formula Used : Linear equations with one variable

Calculation:

Given equation is

  $\frac{y}{7}=-11$

To isolate the variable y, multiply by $7$ both sides-

  $\frac{y}{7}\times 7=-11\times 7$

This gives us-

  $y=-11\times 7$

Hence the final answer is-

  $y=-77$
