To solve this, you distribute the -y to both terms, 2 and 4y.
It will look something like this: (2*-y)+(4y*-y)
When you simplify, look for any like terms that can be combined, and if none, then leave it as it is.
Your final answer will be: -2y-4y^2
1/2 / 4
which can be rewritten as 1/2 * 1/4 (i bet you learnt how to divide fractions ... if you didnt then comment and ill tell you the rules for dividing)
1/2 * 1/4 = 1/8
Let Sarah's age be s and Antonio's age be a.
According to your question,
2a + 3s = 34
s = 5a
substituting the value of s in eq. 1,
2a + 3(5a) = 34
= 2a + 15 a = 34
17a = 34
thus, a = 34/17 = 2
substituting the value of a is s,
s = 5(2)
= 10
Thus, Sarah's age is 10 years and Antonio's age is 2 years.
Answer:
51 inches (or 4 feet 2 inches)
Step-by-step explanation:
