Y equals -34.
First, you multiply both sides of the equation by the number 2 ... [2* y/2 + 2*5= -2*12 ] 2 cancels out and now your left with [y+2*5=-2*12] which turns into [ y+10=-2*12] after you multiply 5*2. Which now turns into [y+10= -24] after you multiply -2*12.

Secondly, you subtract 10 from both sides of the equation! (y+10-10=-24-10) y is now isolated because +10-10 cancels out !

Lastly, you are are left with y= -24-10... once you calculate this you will get the answer -34 !

HOPE THIS HELPS!

John took a 5 ½ mile walk to his friend’s house. He left at 11 a.m. and arrived at his friend’s house at 1 p.m. What was John’s

olganol [36]

Answer:

5.5 miles over 2 hours--> 5.5/2= 2.75 miles per hour was his average walking speed. 5.5 miles over 2.5 hours --> 5.5/2.5= 2.2 miles per hour on the return trip meaning that his average speed was (2.75-2.2= 0.55) 0.55 miles per hour lower on the return trip
