Answer:
3/2y -5
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/2 (-3y+10)
Distribute
-1/2* -3y + -1/2*10
3/2y -5
Answer:
Marta's rope is 94"
Step-by-step explanation:
D = dilberts rope length
M = marta's rope length
Marta's jump rope is 10" shorter than four times the length of Dilbert's rope
M = 4D-10
both their ropes laid together end to end and measured 120" long
M+D = 120
Substitute 4D-10 for M in the second equation
4D-10 + D = 120
Combine like terms
5D-10=120
Add 10 to each side
5D-10+10 =120+10
5D =130
Divide by 5
5D/5 = 130/5
D =26
Now we need to find M
M+D = 120
M +26 = 120
Subtract 26 from each side
M = 120-26
M = 94
Ok so to find this we need to find 25% of 8 and then add that number to 8 itself. SO .25*8=2. So 2+8=10. So the answer is 10. IF you don't get it just ask and i can try to re explain
