xx/4=y Y is the lesser number. xx is the greater number. Since xx is four times y, you need to divide xx by four to find y. To find xx, you would need to multiply y times four, and the resulting expression would be 4y=xx.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem.

A² + B² = C²

In this case, A = 8, B is unknown, and C = 17. B is the side that we want to calculate.

8² + B² = 17²

64 + B² = 289

B² = 225

B = √225 = 15

20 = 8x + 4y what is y?

alisha [4.7K]

You have to move the 8x over to the other side to get y by itself. and then divide the 4 from the y to the other side and y should equal y= 2x+5
