Solve the equation for the indicated variable.
x=2y-2 for y

2y - 2 = x

2y = x + 2

y = (x + 2)/2

explanation:

infrared radiation has wavelength in the range between 700 nm and 1 mm. lets' convert these values into scientific notation, keeping in mind that:

let's start from the lower value, we have:

(we moved the dot two places to the left, so we increased the exponent by 2 units, from -9 to -7)

the higher value is:

so, the range of wavelength of infrared radiation is:
