What is the answer 2(4y+1)=3y

1 answer:

4 0

2(4y+1) = 3y. We need to solve for y.
First let's get ride of the parenthesis by developing 2(4y+1). This means to multiply 2 by 4y and 2 by 1, and add them.
2(4y+1) = 2*4y + 2*1 = 8y + 2
So 2(4y+1)=3y
8y+2 = 3y
Then you subtract 8y from each side to have the variables on a side and the numbers on the other:
3y - 8y = 8y + 2 - 8y
-5y = 2
Then you divide each side by -5 to get the variable y alone on a side and its value on the other:
(-5y)/-5 = 2/-5
y = -2/5

You can re-check your answer (very important):
2(4y + 1) = 2(4*-2/5 + 1) = -1.2
3y = 3 * -2/5 = -1.2
So 2(4y+1)=3y= -1.2
The answer has been approved.

Hope this Helps! :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

how i figured this out was not by using the table, but you can use the table

i just asked myself what two numbers multiplied together has a product of -12, one number must me negative

the two numbers must also add up to -4, meaning the bigger number had to be negative

the only answer that worked was 2 and -6

Solve 9x−y=45 for y.

Taya2010 [7]

So to solve for y, we need to get y alone on one side of the equation. So we are going to subtract 9x from both sides of the equation to get:

$-y=-9x+45$

And since y is negative, we are going to divide both sides by -1 in order to make the y positive:

$y=9x-45$

assume the situation can be exposed as a linear cost, find the cost function, fixed cost is $100, 40 items cost 1,200 to produce

alexira [117]

C(x) = 1200(40) + 100
or
= mx+c
where m = 1200, x = 40, y = 100
