Answer:

Explanation:
[to solve for y, first use the properties of equality to simplify the equation]
5y + 3 = 8y − 5 + 2y
5y + 3 = (8y + 2y) – 5
[regroup the like terms of y together: commutative property of equality ; adding in a different order will still give you the same result]
5y + 3 = 10y – 5
[combine like terms]
5y + 3 = 10y – 5

[subtract 3 from both sides in order to eliminate the constant term on the left side: subtraction property of equality]
5y = 10y – 8
–10y –10y
[subtract 10 from both sides in order to eliminate the variable term: subtraction property of equality]
-5y = -8
÷(-5) ÷(-5)
[divide both sides by -5 to cancel out the coefficient of y: division property of equality]
y = 8/5
<span>Let’s say we have a starting point (0,0), the point (4,3) are distance apart at 90 degrees, hence the hypotenuse to those two distance will be 5.
Therefore sin q = 4/5.</span>
You can see if the other angles add up to 180 or 360 degrees (depending on shape) then add them to make it the number, for example, if a triangle has a right angle, then the other 2 angles are 45 degrees, knowing that EVERY triangle's angles add up to 180 degrees.
Here is how I would show the work for this problem
5- (a-4) = 3 (a+2)
5-a+4 = 3*a+3*2
5-a+4 = 3a+6
-a+9 = 3a+6
-a+9+a = 3a+6+a
9 = 4a+6
9-6 = 4a+6-6
3 = 4a
4a = 3
4a/4 = 3/4
a = 3/4
So the solution is the fraction a = 3/4 (in decimal form 0.75)
