Question

simplify:

\frac{1}{y} - 2

(assume all denominators are nonzero)

Explanation:

Find a common denominator

$$ \frac{1}{y} - 2 = \frac{1}{y} - \frac{2y}{y} $$

Combine the numerators

$$ \frac{1}{y} - \frac{2y}{y} = \frac{1 - 2y}{y} $$

Answer:

Simplify:
\(\frac{1}{y}-2\)

(Assume all denominators are nonzero)
