Question

Helppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

Answer 1

Answer:

The person can correct this error two ways.  The first is by multiplying every part of the right side by 8 instead of only the $\frac{y}{8}$:

$8(4) = (\frac{y}{8} + 1)(8)\\32 = y + 8\\24 = y$

Another way to fix it is to subtract 1 from both sides before multiplying both sides by 8.

$4 - 1 = (\frac{y}{8} + 1) - 1\\3 = \frac{y}{8} \\8(3) = \frac{y}{8}(8)\\24 = y$

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4=y/8+1

rewrite equation

y/8 + 1 = 4

move all terms not containing y to the right of the equation

y/8 = 3

multiply both sides of the equation by 8

8 x y/8 = 8 x 3

simplify both sides of the equation.

y = 24
