To find [tex]\( y \)[/tex] in terms of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] given the equation [tex]\( x - 2y = 0 \)[/tex], follow these steps:
1. Start with the given equation:
[tex]\[
x - 2y = 0
\][/tex]
2. Isolate [tex]\( y \)[/tex]. First, add [tex]\( 2y \)[/tex] to both sides of the equation to move the term involving [tex]\( y \)[/tex] to one side:
[tex]\[
x - 2y + 2y = 0 + 2y
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
x = 2y
\][/tex]
3. Next, solve for [tex]\( y \)[/tex] by dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
[tex]\[
\frac{x}{2} = \frac{2y}{2}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
y = \frac{x}{2}
\][/tex]
Thus, [tex]\( y \)[/tex] in terms of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] is given by:
[tex]\[
y = \frac{x}{2}
\][/tex]
