Answer:
z=-3 so 2y+3(-3)=-8, 2y-9=-8, add 9 to both sides 2y=1 divide both sides by 2, y=1/2, so 3x+4(1/2)+-3=-2, 3x+2-3=-2, 3x-1=-2, add 1 to both sides, 3x=-1, divide both sides by 3, x=-1/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is simply length + width. They gave us that the length is 2 feet plus 2 times the width:
Subtract 2 from both sides to get 23 = 2w + w
Combine like terms to get 23 = 3w
Divide by 3 to get 
feet
Answer:
The answer is 3.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Use cross multiplication to set up the equation then simplify,
17y = 63
y = 63/17
y = 3.705
Round to the nearest tenth.
Solution is y = 3.07
Good luck!
Answer:
a = 6
Explanation:
7a − 17 = 4a + 1
Subtract 4a from both sides
7a − 17 − 4a = 4a + 1 − 4a
3a − 17 = 1
Add 17 to both sides
3a − 17 + 17 = 1 + 17
3a = 18
Divide both sides by 3
3a / 3 = 18 / 3
a = 6
