First way is distribute to get
-10=2y-3
add 3 to both sides
-7=2y
divide by 2 both sides
-7/2=y
y=-7/2=-3.5

2nd way
multiply both sides by 4/1
-40=8y-12
add 12 both sides
-28=8y
divide both sides by 8
-28/8=y
y=-28/8
y=-7/2=-3.5

those are 2 ways to solve

A raffle prize of 14x^2/15dollars is to be divided among 7x people. Write an expression for the amount of money that each person

vladimir2022 [97]

For this case we must divide the following expression:

$\frac {\frac {14x ^ 2} {15}} {7x}$

And in this way we get the amount of money that each person will receive.

Then applying double C we have:

$\frac {14x ^ 2} {15 * 7x} =\\\frac {14x ^ 2} {105x} =\\0.133x$

Thus, each person has 0.133x of money!

Answer:

0.133x
