Option B: is the value of y
Explanation:
It is given that "Two times x is 8 more than y". Writing it as expression, we have,
It is also given that "The sum of x and two times y is 14". Writing it as expression, we have,
To find the value of y, let us solve the two equations using substitution method.
From the equation , let us find the value of x.
Now, substituting in the equation , we get,
Thus, the value of y is
Y = 8
A bag contains 8 fruits.
A box can hold 4 TIMES as many fruits.
So, 4•8= 32
32 fruits.
D is your answer if you times 8 and 2 together to get your A& B
We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length, plus twice the width.
P = 2L + 2W
We also know that the perimeter is 156.
P = 156
Finally, we know that the width is 12 less than the length.
W = L - 12.
The next thing that we do is substitute the information that we have into the original equation:
P = 2L + 2W
156 = 2L + 2(L - 12)
From this point we start to solve
156 = 2L + 2L - 24 <---we multiplied the '2' through the parenthesis
156 + 24 = 2L + 2L - 24 + 24
180 = 2L + 2L <--- getting like terms on same sides
180 = 4L <---combining like terms
180/4 = 4L/4 <--- getting like terms on same sides
45 = L <---now we have a value for L
Now we take the known value for L and substitute it in to our equation for W
W = L - 12
W = 45 - 12
W = 33
So now we have Length = 45 and Width = 33.
D because it helps better and explains better and makes most sense
