What is the justification for step 2 in the solution process?

Mathematics

Answer:

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y

12y - 40 - 4y = 6y - 18

8y -40 = 6y - 18

8y - 6y - 40 = -18

2y - 40 = -18 ( the justification for step 2 is to isolate y on one side of the                   equation in order to solve for y )

2y - 40 + 40 = 40 - 18

2y = 22

2y/2 = 22/2

y = 11

Check :

12(11) - 40 - 4(11) = 6 (11) - 18

132 - 40 - 44 = 66 - 18

48= 48

Add the two expressions.<br><br> −2.4n−3 and −7.8n+2
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

-10.2n - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two expressions in variable n and we have to add the two expressions.

An important thing to note is that only like terms can be added. i.e. the term with "n" can only be added or subtracted to the term with "n". Similarly a constant can only be added or subtracted to a constant.

(-2.4n-3)+(-7.8n+2)\\=-2.4n-3-7.8n+2\\=-2.4n-7.8n-3+2\\=-10.2n-1

Thus, the two given expressions add up to -10.2n - 1

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

ΔCTA ≅ ΔDRA

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles CTA and DRA are congruent by ASA postulate. This is because:

  • ∠1 ≅ ∠2 (given)
  • AC ≅ AR (given)
  • ∠A is the same for both triangles (they are opposite angles)

Then, correspondent angles and sides are congruent, for example, ∠3 ≅ ∠4
