Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for a variable, first you have to isolate it on one side of the equation.

First, you do is subtract 2 from both sides.

2y-2+2=36-2

Then, you simplify.

36-2=34

2y=34

Next, you divide 2 from both sides.

2y/2=34/2

Finally, simplify.

34/2=17

<h2>Therefore, the correct answer is y=17. </h2><h2>Hope this helps! </h2><h2>Thank you for posting your question!</h2>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2y+2=36

Let's solve this equation for 2y first. This means get 2y by itself.

So to get 2y by itself I need to undo that addition of 2 next to it.

The inverse operation of addition is subtraction.

I'm going to subtract 2 on both sides:

2y =36-2

2y =34

Now we want to get y by itself so we divide both sides by 2 since division and multiplication are inverse operations:

y= 34/2

y= 17

1/6 of 180 =180÷ 6= 30

30 mins is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

if you want to find another position other than 1/6 like 4/6 then you can just times the answer in this case 30 by the amout u need in this case 4 so 4/6 would be 120 which is 2 hours

HELP When 2((Three-fifths x + 2 and three-fourths y minus one-fourth x minus 1 and one-half y + 3)) is simplified, what is the r

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

<h2> StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction x + 2 and one-half y + 6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression $2(\frac{3x}{5}+2\frac{3y}{4}-\frac{x}{4}-1 \frac{1}{2}y+3)$

To simplify the expression, we need to first collect the like terms of the functions in parentheses as shown;

$= 2(\frac{3x}{5}-\frac{x}{4}-1 \frac{1}{2}y+2\frac{3}{4}y+3)\\= 2(\frac{3x}{5}-\frac{x}{4}- \frac{3}{2}y+\frac{11}{4}y+3)\\$

Then we find the LCM of the resulting function

$= 2(\frac{3x}{5}-\frac{x}{4}- \frac{3}{2}y+\frac{11}{4}y+3)\\= 2(\frac{12x-5x}{20} - (\frac{6y-11y}{4})+3)\\= 2(\frac{7x}{20}- (\frac{-5y}{4})+3 )\\= 2(\frac{7x}{20}+ \frac{5y}{4}+3 )\\= \frac{7x}{10} + \frac{5y}{2} +6\\= \frac{7x}{10} + 2\frac{1}{2}y+6\\$

The final expression gives the required answer

11. Sarah claims that (x - 4) is a factor of p(x) = x2 +8x - 48.Which equation must

velikii [3]

Answer:

d) p(4) = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(4) = 0:-

p(4) = 4^2 + 8(4) - 48

= 16 + 32 - 48

= 0.

This is an application of the Factor Theorem ( a special case of The Remainder Theorem)

The Factor theorem states that if (x - a) is a factor of P(x) then P(a) = 0.
