Answer:
y = (2/5) OR y = (6/5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is isolating the expression within the absolute value bars. The first thing we can do is subtract both sides by 8. If we do that, we get -2|4-5y| = -4. Now, to completely isolate the absolute value, we would have to divide by -2. This yields |4 - 5y| = 2. Finally, we can remove the absolute value bars. However, to do this, we need to first understand what an absolute value bar does to an equation. Lets say that |x| = 2. Absolute value describes the DISTANCE of some quantity from 0 (on the number line). Therefore, x (which is inside the absolute value bars) can be either positive or negative 2 (they are BOTH two units away from 0). Similarly, in this case, (4 - 5y) can either be 2 or -2 (because the absolute value of both is 2). Now we have two possible solutions to solve for:
4 - 5y = 2 OR 4 - 5y = -2
5y = 2 OR 5y = 6
y = (2/5) OR y = (6/5)
If we plug both of these answers back into the equation we can see that they both check out.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok let start by putting a set amount of hats, let start with 12, 8 times 12 equals 96, 200-96 is 104… I would subtract 8 until you get a number you can divide equally by 10, 104-8=96, 96-8 =88 , 88-8=80, there is 80 dollars left! Ok 80 divide by 10 = 8 so
8 shirts and we’ll we started at 12 and then we add how many more time we subtracted 8 so 15 total,
So, in total 8 shirts and 15 hats!!!
The answer is 3 because all you have to do is plug in the answer and then you have to solve the answer and go from there.
Answer:
9 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Pounds of bananas=2 7/8
=23/8
Pounds of apple=3 1/2
=7/2
2 bags of oranges=2 3/4 each
11/4 each.
Total pounds of oranges=2(11/4)
=22/4
Total pounds of fruits Marisol bought from the market=pounds of bananas+pounds of apples+pounds of oranges
=28/8+7/2+22/8
Find the L.C.M and add them
The L.C.M=8
Total pounds of fruits =28+28+22/8
=78/8
=9 6/8
Equivalent to
9 3/4
