Answer:

Given the equation 2y-40=-18 to simplify the equation further we need to first add 40 to both sides of the equation thereby justifying the addition property as shown;

2y-40 + 40 =-18+40

2y = 40-18

2y = 22

We will also apply the division property here. Division property is used when both sides of an equation is divided by a number without affecting the equality rule.

Dividing the resulting equation by 2:

2y/2 = 22/2

y = 11

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
To m<span>atch each equation with its y-intercept x must be zero, so you have:
x=0 and solve for y, as following:

1) cx+by=a (0,a/b)
y=a/b
2) bx+ay=c (0,c/a)
y=c/a
3) ax+by=c (0,c/b)
y=c/b
4) cx+ay=b (0,b/a)
y=b/a

Answer:

0.5x7

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the original expression is $4.3*3+ 11(8.2-0.5*7)-6$ , according to PEMDAS multiplication takes priority over addition and subtraction,, and therefore, from the choices given, 0.5 * 7 must be performed first.
