8y+7= y+21
Subtract y from both side
7y+7=21
Subtract 7 from both sides
7y = 14
Divide both sides by 7
Y=2 or A
Distributive property means that you have to multiply everything directly outside the parent hes to everything inside the parentheses. For this problem multiply 7 to the 9x and to the -9 like so:
7(9x) + 7(-9)
63x + (-63)
63x - 63

Hi!
<u>Given these two equations:</u>


We want to solve using the substitution method. Knowing that x is equal to y + 8, we can simply plug in 'y + 8' in for x in the second equation, like so:

Combine like terms on both sides:

Subtract y from both sides:

Subtract 8 from both sides:

Now, we can simply plug the y value in to the first equation, and solve for x:

Simplify:

<h3>
Therefore, x is equal to 12 and y is equal to 4.</h3>

Answer:
let required no be x

by doing crisscrossed multiplication

42=7x
dividing both side by 7

6=x
therefore x=6
therefore value of remaining no.is 6
how do i answer that I don't even know that sorry
