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

Select all statements that are true about the graph of ordered pair (5, −1) . The point is 5 units below the x-axis. The point i

seropon [69]

The -1 means that y = -1, so point is one unit below the x-axis. In (5, -1), the x is positive, which could put the point in either the first quadrant or the fourth. With the y being negative, however, it means that the point is in the fourth quadrant. Those are your 2 true statements.
