To solve for y in 2x – 17y = 13
[tex]2x-17y=13[/tex]Make y the subject of formular
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x-17y=13 \\ 2x-13=17y \end{gathered}[/tex]divide both side by 17
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2x-13}{17}=\frac{17y}{17} \\ y=\frac{2x-13}{17} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the value of y is
[tex]y=\frac{2x-13}{17}[/tex]
