\frac{5}{6} y - 2 = 8 \\ \\  \frac{5y}{6} - 2 = 8 \ / \ simplify \\ \\  \frac{5y}{6} = 8 + 2 \ / \ add \ 2 \ to \ each \ side \\ \\  \frac{5y}{6} = 10 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 5y = 10 \times 6 \ / \ multiply \ each \ side \ by \ 6 \\ \\ 5y = 60 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ y =  \frac{60}{5} \ / \ divide \ each \ side \ by \ 5 \\ \\ y = 12 \ / \ simplify \\ \\

The final answer is y = 12.

5/6y-2=8
       +2  +2
Add the reciprocal to cancel out the twos andd 8+2=10
so you have left 5/6y=10 and you'll take the reciprocal of 5 divided by 6 times five and cancels the 5/ out and also multiply 10*5 and you're left with 6y=50 then you just divide by six and there you go you have y=12

hope this helped

Which measure is equivalent to 25,200 seconds?<br><br> 1 min = 60 s<br><br> 1 h = 60 min
sertanlavr [38]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • 1 min = 60 sec
  • 1 h = 60 min.

<em>The given time is in seconds. Convert it into minutes by dividing it by 60.</em>

  • => 25,200 seconds = 25,200 ÷ 60 minutes = 420 minutes

<em>The obtained time is in minutes. Convert it into hours by dividing it by 60.</em>

  • => 420 minutes = 420 ÷ 60 hours = 7 hours

<u>We can conclude that:</u>

  • 25,200 seconds = 420 minutes = 7 hours
