Solving the equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
liubo4ka [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-(4y + 2) - (-3y - 6) = -1

Step 2: Solve for <em>y</em>

  1. Distribute: -4y - 2 + 3y + 6 = -1
  2. Combine like terms: -y + 4 = -1
  3. Subtract 4 on both sides: -y = -5
  4. Divide both sides by -1: y = 5

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in y to verify it's a solution.</em>

-(4(5) + 2) - (-3(5) - 6) = -1

-(20 + 2) - (-15 - 6) = -1

-22 - (-21) = -1

-22 + 21 = -1

-1 = -1

Write an algebraic expression for 84 more than the product of 167 and b
Ket [755]

Answer:

  167b + 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication is indicated between a number and a variable by writing them next to each other. A "product" is the result of multiplication, so "the product of 167 and b" is written 167b.

If you want a value that is 84 more than that, you get it by adding 84.

  167b + 84
