Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Put the value of }\ y=0\ \text{to the given equation}\ y=2x+2:\\\\0=2x+2\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\0-2x=2x-2x+2\\\\-2x=2\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\\dfrac{-2x}{-2}=\dfrac{2}{-2}\\\\x=-1$

Answer:

Solving equations by substitution is exactly as it says it is, you will simply substitute.

In your example: y=2x+2, y=0

You will plug 0 in for y

Your equation will now look like 0=2x+2, now you are going to solve it like a normal equation, getting x by itself

0=2x+2 (first you want to minus 2 from each side)

-2=2x (now you are going to divide each side by 2)

-1=x

x=-1

Hope this helps ;)

Gina has 5 2/8 feet of silver ribbon and 3 6/8 of gold ribbon. How much more silver ribbon does Gina have than gold ribbon.

Paraphin [41]

Answer: we are simply to subtract the length of the gold ribbon which is 2 4/6 ft from the length of the silver ribbon, 5 2/6 feet. Mathematically,

5 2/6 feet - 2 4/6 feet = 8/3 feet

Therefore, Gina has 8/3 feet more of the silver ribbon than the golden ribbon.
