Three times x: 3x
is two more than half of y: 1/2y + 2

3x = 1/2y + 2

Isolate the y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side you do to the other. Also do the opposite of PEMDAS.

3x (-2) = 1/2y + 2 (-2)

3x - 2 = 1/2y

2(1/2y) = 2(3x - 2)

y = 2(3x - 2)

distribute the 2 to all terms inside the parenthesis

2(3x) = 6x
2(-2) = -4

y = 6x - 4, or D)

hope this helps

Remark
Start with y. Then move over to x and see what it does.

Step one
Find the expression for y
The whole equation = 1/2 y

Step Two
Find the detailed expression for x
3 times x = 3x

Step 3 
Add 2 onto y
3x = 1/2 y + 2

Step 4
Equate the 2 parts and solve
1/2 y + 2 = 3x                Subtract 2 from both sides.
1/2 y = 3x - 2                 Multiply both sides by 2
y = 2*(3x - 2)                 Whatever is on either side of the minus must be multiplied by 2. That means you use brackets.

y = 6x - 4

The average of your first 6 tests is 82. If your test average after your seventh test is an 80.5, what did you score on the seve
mart [117]
So average is  of the first 6 tests is 82   well that means 

(test1 + test2+ test3+ test4 + test5+test6)/6 = 82

so now let do some cross multiplliying 

test1 + test2 + test3 + test 4 + test5 +test6 = 82*6

test1 + test2 + test3 + test 4 + test5 +test6  = 492

now lets see if we can find that 7th test score

(test1 + test2 + test3 + test4 + test5 +test6 + test7)/7 = 80.5

So look we found test1 + test2 + test3 + test4 + test5 +test6 to be 492 so lets substitute. 

(492 + test7 )/7 = 80.5

test7 = (80.5*7)-492 = 71.5
