Answer

The value of y in the equation $x-{{y}^{2}}=1$ is $y=\sqrt{x+1}$.

Work Step by Step

Solve for the value of y $x={{y}^{2}}-1$ Adding $1$ on both sides of the equation, we get, $x+1=1+{{y}^{2}}-1$ $\begin{align} & x+1={{y}^{2}} \\ & y=\sqrt{x+1} \end{align}$ Hence, the value of y in the equation $x-{{y}^{2}}=1$ is $y=\sqrt{x+1}$.
