So we need to plug in y into our equation so our new equation is:

4x - 2(x+1.75) = 4

first lets distribute the 2 by multiplying the values inside the parentheses by 2

4x - 2x + 3.5 = 4

4x - 2x = 2x

so now our equation is 2x + 3.5 = 4

we need to get x by itself on one side of the parentheses so lets move the 3.5 by subtracting by 3.5 on both sides

2x + 3.5 = 2x
4 - 3.5 = .5

new equation: 2x = .5

now to get rid of this 2 (being multiplied by x) we simply have to do the opposite - divide by 2 on each side

2x/2 = x
.5/2 = .25

so our x value is equal to .25!

if you have any questions about how i answered this question please let me know:)

when you multiply a number by a value that's greater than 1, that number increases, for example 2 and then we multiply it like 2 * 3, clearly 2*3 is greater than 2.

now when you multiply a number  by a value that's lesser than 1, that number decreases, for example 2 and then we multiply it by something like 1/4, so 2 * 1/4 = 1/2, well, clearly 1/2 is smaller than 2, so 1/2 is a decreased value of 2.

23)

we have here 4/7, and then a product, well, the product is 4/7 and 9/10, however 9/10 is less than 1, recall 1 = 10/10, 9/10 is just a tiny bit less than 1.

because we're multiplying 4/7 by some amount less than 1, the product is a smaller value than 4/7, thus

 \bf \cfrac{4}{7}~~>~\left( \cfrac{9}{10}\times \cfrac{4}{7} \right)

25)

we have here 5/6 and we multiply it by 7/7, wait a minute!!! 7/7 = 1, we're really just multiplying 5/6 by 1 then, what does that give us?  well, 5/6 * 1  = 5/6, just the number itself,

\bf \cfrac{5}{6}~~=~\left( \cfrac{5}{6}\times \cfrac{7}{7} \right)

Bess [88]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

20^2 +b^2 = 25^2

400 + b^2 = 625

-400           -400

b^2 = 225

b = √225

b = 15
