So to solve for y, subtract 108 from each side.
The equation becomes -y=126
Since you don't want y to be negative then divide each side by -1 this will flip all of the signs (positives become negative and vice versa) without changing the number.
So the equation is now y= -126
Answer:44 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
P=2(l+w)
P=2(14+8)
P=2(22)
P=44
We will use addition to find the length of the new, longer hose.
6.25 feet + 5.755 feet + 6.5 feet = 18.505 feet is the length of the new longer hose.
