Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the left side of the equation.

5(y-2)-2= 2(y+1)-5

5y-10-2= 2(y+1)-5

Now let's solve the right side

5y-10-2= 2y+2-5

5y-12= 2y-3

-2y     -2y

3y-12=-3

   +12 +12

3y = 9

3y/3 = 9/3

y = 3

hope this helps!

Claire traveled 701 miles. She drove 80 miles every day. On the last day of her trip she only drove 61 miles. Write and solve an
mina [271]

Answer:

Claire traveled for 9 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Distance traveled = 701 miles

Distance traveled each day = 80 miles

Distance traveled on last day = 61 miles

We need to find the number of days Claire traveled.

Solution:

Let the number of days Claire traveled be denoted by 'd'.

Now we can say that;

Total Distance traveled is equal to sum of Distance traveled each day multiplied by number of days and Distance traveled on last day.

framing in equation form we get;

80d+61=701

Now Subtracting both side by 61 using Subtraction Property of Equality we get;

80d+61-61=701-61\\\\80d = 640

Now Dividing both side by 80 we get;

\frac{80d}{80}=\frac{640}{80}\\\\d=8

Hence Claire traveled 80 miles in 8 days and 61 miles on last day making of total <u>9 days</u> of travel.
