The first step to solving this is to multiply both sides of the equation by 3
8 + 10y = 9y - 12
now move the variable to the left side and change its sign
8 + 10y - 9y = -12
move the constant to the right side and change its sign
10y - 9y = -12 - 8
collect the like terms for y
y = -12 - 8 (it equals 1 when you subtract 10 from 9 which is the same is simply saying "y")
calculate the difference on the other side of the equals sign
y = -20
this means that the correct answer to your question is -20.

Answer: A 2 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
9/4 is equal to 2 1/4
9 / 4 = 2.25
2.25 = 2 1/4
The answer you are looking for is C my friend
First write down the formula which is: y=mx+b
M is the slope and B is the y-intercept
The slope is rise/run, so if your slope is 2 then, 2 is your rise and 1 is your run
In order to find the y intercept you have to plot the points given in your question and and move your rise down and moving the run to the left until you find your y-intercept
Once you find the y-intercept, just plug in your slope and y-intercept
To minimize the cost, you would want the side with the brick wall to be as small as possible. as you provided no restraints to the size, a garden which is 1 foot wide by 22 feet long would be most cost effective, with 22 feet times 2 sides equaling 44 feet in total, plus one foot for the back wall. With a total of 45 feet of fence costing $450, and 1 foot of brick which will cost $20, the total cost would be $470.
