Question

What is the solution to the equation 13.7y = 6.2y + 30? y = –4 y = –1.5 y = 1.5 y = 4

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a "2-step" equation. Subtract the y-term on the right, then divide by the coefficient of y.

  13.7y = 6.2y +30

  13.7y -6.2y = 6.2y -6.2y +30 . . . . subtract 6.2y

  7.5y = 30 . . . . . simplify

 7.5y/7.5 = 30/7.5 . . . . . . divide by 7.5

  y = 4 . . . . . . . . . simplify
