Answer: y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

7-y-y=-1

Combine like terms

7-2y=-1

Subtract seven on both sides of the equation

7-7-2y=-1-7

-2y=-8

Divide both sides by -2

-2y/-2=-8/-2

y=4

Check the answer by plugging 4 back in the equation for y.

7-4-4=3-4=-1

The final answer is y=4

explain why multiplying the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same number results in an equivalent fraction.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

We also know that when you have the same numerator and denominator in a fraction, it always equals 1. For example: So as long as we multiply or divide both the top and the bottom of a fraction by the same number, it's just the same as multiplying or dividing by 1 and we won't change the value of the fraction.

Solve this inequality.<br><br> 8x + 6 less than or equel to 54

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$x\le 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the given inequality $8x+6\le 54$ ....(1)

Subtract 6 on both sides of the equation as :

$8x+6-6\le 54-6\\\\8x\le 48$

Dividing both sides of the equation by 8 such that,

$x\le 6$

So, the value of x is less than equal to 6. Hence, this is the required solution.

Simplify this expression: 3c + 7 - 9c

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

-6c + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this expression, you must add like terms. Because 3c and -9c both have the same variable (c), they are like terms.

3c + (-9c) = -6c

The 7 stays the same, so the simplified expression is -6c + 7.

Hope this helped :)
