If you want to solve for x, then
add 2y to both sides
x=2y+4
if want to solve for y
minus x both sides and divide by -2
x-2y=4
-2y=-x+4
y=1/2x-2

Answer: <u>24 years</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
% • total = Answer
4.25% • $40,000 = Answer
.0425 • $40,000 = Answer
Answer = $1,700 per year
40,000 ÷ 1,700 = 23.5
<u>23.5 rounded to the nearest year is 24</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the width by W. Then, "The length of a rectangular field is 7 m less than 4 times the width" expressed symbolically is
L = 4W - 7 (dimensions in meters)
Recall that the perimeter formula in this case is P = 2L + 2W, and recognize that the perimeter value is 136 m. After substituting 4W - 7 for L, we get:
136 m = 2(4W - 7) + 2W, or
136 = 8W - 14 + 2W, or
150 = 10W These three equations are equivalent mathematical statements.
150 = 10W reduces to W = 15 (meters).
Part A: the independent variable is W, the width of the field.
Part B: The mathematical statement is 136 m = 2(4W - 7) + 2W, which after algebraic manipulation becomes 150 = 10W.
Part C: The above equation can be solved for W: W = 15 meters. This is the value of the independent variable.
