First you need to multiply 2.40+1.3=3.73 and then subtracted 5-3.73=$1.27
2x = -11 + 9
2x = -2
x= 2/2
x= 1
You subtract 193 from 201 and the answer is 8. So y=8. Because 193+8= 201. Also any number that is greater than 8 is also an answer, because the question says greater than or equal to which means the answer of 193+y should be greater than or equal to 201. Hope this helps!
Find the greatest common factor (GCF)
in this case it would be 9
divide each term by the GCF
36 / 9 = 4
9y / 9 = y
put the two "new" terms in parenthesis and the GCF in front of it
9 (4 + y)
it could also be 9 (y + 4) because of Commutative Property of Addition
