To solve for y, we simply need to isolate the variable and simplify all other terms. We can do this by performing the opposite operations on the terms.

4y-1=7
   +1+1
4y=8
/4  /4
y=2

Using the math above, we can see that y=2.

Hi,

Here we are going to be working on isolating the variable y, and seeing what its value equates to.

To do this, we must try and get the variable y on one side of the equation by itself. 

Let's look at step one -

<em>4y - 1 = 7
</em>
We want to get rid of the 1 since we need to isolate x. We do this by doing the inverse of its operation. Since 1 is negative, if we add positive 1 to it - we will get 0, thereby being closer to isolating y.

However, when we do something on one side of the equation we must do it on the other. This means we will add 1 on both sides.

<em>4y - 1 + 1 = 7 + 1
</em>
<em>4y = 8
</em>
<em />Remember how I mentioned we do the inverse of the operation? In this case, 4 is multiplying y. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. So, to get rid of the 4 - we must divide 4y by 4, on both sides.

<em>4y / 4 = 8 / 4
</em>
<em>y = 2
</em>
We now know the variable y is equal to 2. 

Hopefully, this helps.

CAN SOMEONE PLS HELP ME WITH THIS. YOU'LL EARN 50 POINTS!!!
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

a. x is the width of the fence in feet and y is the length of the fence in feet , f = 2x+ 2y equation represents that the fence is twice the width and twice the length , x>10 represents that the width should be atleast 10 feet , y >8 represents that the length should be at least 8 feet , 3f<120 represents the cost constraint. it says that the fencing cost $3 per foot and should cost less than or equal to 120 . b. yes, i agree. this is because the inequality f>0 implies that the length of the fencing should be greater than 0. I hope this helps ! :)
