Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of children, then

number of men = 4c and number of women = 2c

Sum the numbers of each and equate to 266

4c + 2c + c = 266, that is

7c = 266 ( divide both sides by 7 )

c = 38

Thus

4 × 38 = 152 and 2 × 38 = 76

The group consists of 38 children, 152 men and 76 women

What is the value of y in the equation 4y – 2(1 – y) = –44?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find y, follow these steps:

4y - 2 (1 - y) = -44

First, distribute the -2 into the parenthesis:

4y - 2 + 2y = -44

The reason the 2y is positive is due to the fact that negative and negative cancel each other out and form a positive.

Now, combine like terms:

6y - 2 = -44

To get y, you need to isolate it from the constants. In order to do so, do the inverse relationship for the constant -2. To do this, add 2 to -44:

6y = -42

Now, divide six on both sides. You divide because six is currently being multiplied with y. Keep in mind that the 42 is still negative!

y = -7

Hope this helps!
