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

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

7x+3x+3=4x+6 what is x
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Simplify the sides of the equation...</em>

<em>10x + 3 = 4x + 6</em>

<em>Subtract 3 from both sides...</em>

<em>10x = 4x + 3</em>

<em>Subtract 4x from both sides...</em>

<em>6x = 3</em>

<em>Divide by 6</em>

<em>x = 1/2</em>

<em>Thank me later :)</em>

<em>(or just give brainliest)</em>

Pls help asap!! Hhuwdqnjwl
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the answer, add the whole numbers together and then add the fractions together:

9 + 4 = 13

(You can even stop here because 14 is the closest to 13)

Now, add the fractions:

\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{5}

To add fractions you have to have a common denominator. To find the common denominator multiply 3 by 5, and 5 by 3. Like this:

(\frac{5}{5})\frac{2}{3}  + \frac{1}{5} (\frac{3}{3} )

Simplify:

\frac{10}{15} +\frac{3}{15}              Distribute everything from above

\frac{13}{15}                      Add

So, the whole fraction will look like this 13\frac{13}{15}. This is closest to 14.

Hope this helps!! Ask questions if you need!
