Answer:

y = (1/2)x - (15/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

goal: to rearrange the expression such that it is in the form

y = f(x); where f(x) is an expression in terms of x

given:

x - 2y = 15      (subtract x from both sides)

-2y = 15 - x    (multiply both sides by -1 to make left side positive)

2y = -15 + x   (divide both sides by 2 and rearrange)

y = (1/2)x - (15/2)
