Linear Equations in One Variable​

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of denominator is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be y

Then, numerator will be y - 3.

2 is reduced from both the numerator and denominator.

{(y - 3) - 2}/{y - 2} = 1/2

or, (y - 3 - 2)/( y - 2) = 1/2

or, y - 5/y - 2 = 1/2

or, y - 5 = 1/2 x (y - 2)

or, y - 5 = y/2 - 1

or, y - y/2 = -1 + 5

or, (2y - y)/2 = 4

or, y/2 = 4

or, y = 8
