X= 20/17 ; multiply by reciprocal 10 times 8/17 =4x then 80/17=4x , divide both sides by 4 leaves you x=20/17
Answer: Should be "the sum of 3 and the quotient of y and 2"

Answer:
y=1.7x + 1.3
Step-by-step explanation:
16x + 15y =20
therefore we make the variable stand on its own
15y = 20 - 16x
Divide both sides by the variable which is 15.
it will be y= 1.3 - 1 7x
so therefore the answer is :
y= 1.7x + 1.3
Going off the idea that this is 4/(y+2) - 9/(y-2) = 9/(y^2-4), let's first rewrite y^2-4 in the form of a^2-b^2, where a=y and b=2.
y/(y+2)-9/(y-2)=9/(y^2-2^2)
Now, use difference of squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
4/(y+2)-9/(y-2)=9/((y+2)(y-2))
Multiply both sides by the Least Common Denominator: (y+2)(y-2)
4(y-2)-9(y+2)=9
Then keep on simplifying until you get your answer
-5y-26=9
-5y=9+26
-5y=35
y=35/-5
y=-7
Yay! Our answer is y=-7!
