Answer:
y= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Rearrange the terms before the equal sign: 14+y=3y+2-> y+14=3y+2
2. Subtract 14 from both sides: y+14=3y+2-> y=3y-12
-14 -14
3. Subtract 3y from both sides: y=3y-12-> y-3y= -12
-3y -3y
4. Combine like terms: y-3y= -12-> -2y= -12
1-3 keep the y
5. Divide both sides by -2: -2y= -12-> y= 6
/2 /2
6. So, you're left with y= 6
The answer for the question is C
If there is one table (t=1) then 6 chairs (c=6) can be placed around the table, 2 along the length on each side and 1 at each end.
When t=2, and the tables are end to end (joined at their width) c=10, that is, 4 chairs on each side of the double table and 1 at each end. Each time a table is added c increases by 4 so we can write c=4t+2 the constant 2 being the single chair at each end. If the tables are separated then c=6t.
