Answer: y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You have the following expression given in the problem above:
2. Therefore, to solve the equation you must solve for <em>y</em> as following:
3. Then, you obtain that the result of the exercise is:
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x)/2 = 15 is your question.
Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponent (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).
First, multiply 2 to both sides
((3x)/2) = (15)(2)
3x = (15)(2)
3x = 30
Next, to isolate the variable (x), divide 3 from both sides
(3x)/3 = (30)/3
x = 30/3
x = 10
x = 10 is your answer
~
2x + 5y = 270
Two times the amount of wheeled backpacks. Let x = wheeled backpacks.
Five times the amount of non wheeled backpacks. Let y = non wheeled backpacks.
Total backpacks will be 330 so 330 - 60 = 270
Therefore you get 2x + 5y = 270
