Answer:
x-6 = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 8= -2
Add 8 to each side
3x - 8+8= -2+8
3x = 6
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 6/2
x =2
We want to find x-6
2-6 = -4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable of y from one side of the equation.
-14=5(3y-10)-5y
<u>First, switch sides.</u>

Use the distributive property.
<u>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:</u>
A(B-C)=AB-AC
5(3y-10)
Multiply by expand.
5*3y=15y
5*10=50
15y-50-5y
15y-5=10y
= 10y-50
10y-50=-15
Add by 50 from both sides.
10y-50+50=-15+50
Solve.
10y=35
Then, you divide by 10 from both sides.
10y/10=35/10
Solve.
Divide the numbers from left to right.
35/10=7/2
y=7/2
Divide is another option.
7/2=3.5

- <u>Therefore, the correct answer is y=7/2.</u>
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
Well, given that a quarter equals 5 nickels, we can reason that, in order to get 12 coins, we would have to get 10 nickels (equals 50 cents) and 2 quarters (the other 50 cents, to make a dollar).
You didn't say whether you needed this expressed in a mathematical formula, but knowing the answer already, it shouldn't be hard to come up with one if necessary.
Hope this helps.
