If 2x+y=8 and x-1=y then what is y? Please be detailed I want to know more then just the answer but how to solve
IgorLugansk [536]
This is Bridge Algebra 2 stuff. Well you see that 2x+y=8 and x-1=y. To slove for y you have to slove for x first to find y. So 2x+x-1=8 ( the reason I did that is because there is a y in that equation and I placed it on that equation) now lets slove this equation for x. So 3x-1=8( I add 2x with x) 3x=9 ( I made -1 a positive one and add it to 8) x=3 ( I divided 9/3 to get 3). Now that you have slove x we will use x to slove for y. So 3-1=y, 2=y. Your answer is y=2.

The area of Joe's square yard is 196 square meters. Since his house is on one side of the yard, Joe only needs to fence the othe
matrenka [14]

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

So are is length times width,

since we are dealing with a square, then the length and the width are congruent

so we can say that, for this case:

a = length * length

hence

196 = length^2

14 = length

and

14 = width

since only 3 sides of this square are needed, one only has to multiply the length by 3

14 * 3

=42

so only 42 meters of fencing are needed
