2 - 4 ( y + 4 ) = 2y + 16 solve for y

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for a variable, take the following steps:

  • Distribute by multiplying into each term in the parenthesis
  • Combine like terms
  • Move terms across the equal sign using inverse operations

2 - 4 (y + 4) = 2y + 16            Distribute

2 - 4y - 16 = 2y + 16              Combine 2-16

-14 - 4y = 2y + 16                  Add 4y to both sides

-14 = 6y + 16                          Subtract 16 to both sides

-30 = 6y                                Divide by 6

y = -5

Answers

If you mean for factoring, then you must take the common factor (term) out of the equation then have the rest out of what you divided
Parenthesis is () so if they said to put () it means to put those on a certain equation or numbers.
Like: 4+5-7 put with parenthesis it is (4+5) -7 or 4+ (5-7)
It's mostly in PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction) problems and algebra equations!

A group of friends were on a hiking trip they plan to hike a total of 38 miles they want to complete 25% of the hikeby the end of the first day about how many miles should they hike the first day

Answers

Answer:  9.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A group of friends were on a hiking trip they plan to hike a total of 38 miles .

They want to complete 25% of the hike  by the end of the first day .

We can write 25% as 0.25 in decimal.

Now, the number of miles they should hike the first day will be :-

0.25*38=9.5\text{ miles}

Hence, the number of miles they should hike the first day =9.5 miles

they should hike 9.5 miles the first day. 30÷100= 0.38
0.38×25= 9.5

convert to proper fraction

27/4*7/2 divided 18/5 divided 15/4

27/4*7/2*5/18*4/15= 63/36= 7/3

27/4 × 7/2 ÷ 18/5 ÷ 15/4
= 27/4 × 7/2 × 5/18 × 4/15
= 3780/ 2160
= 21/12

= 7/3
