How to solve 4/7y-2 = 3/7 + 3/14

lisabon 2012 [21]

Solution

1) Simplify $\frac{4}{7y}$ to $\frac{4y}{7}$
$\frac{4y}{7}$ −2= $\frac{3}{7}$ + $\frac{3}{14}$

2) Simplify $\frac{3}{7}$ + $\frac{3}{14}$ to 914
 $\frac{4y}{7}$ −2= $\frac{9}{14}$

3) Add 2 to both sides
 $\frac{4y}{7}$ = $\frac{9}{14}$ +2

4) Simplify $\frac{9}{14
}$ +2 to $\frac{37}{14}$
$\frac{4y}{7}$ = $\frac{37}{14}$

5) Multiply both sides by 7
4y= $\frac{37}{14}$ ×7

6) Simplify $\frac{37}{14}$ ×7 to $\frac{259}{14}$
$\frac{4y}{7}$ = $\frac{259}{14}$

7) Simplify $\frac{259}{14}$ to $\frac{37}{2}$
$\frac{4y}{7}$ = $\frac{37}{2}$

8) Divide both sides by 4
y= $\frac{37}{2}$ ×4

9) Simplify 2×4 to 8
y= $\frac{37}{8}$

Hope this helps

D is not right its a negative 8 so therefore it would be minus

Ilya [14]

I really dont understant your question. but you are right that negative 8 that it would be minus. In mathematics, a negative number is a real number that is less than zero. Negative numbers represent opposites. If positive represents movement to the right, negative represents movement to the left.

If f(x) = 5x + 4, which of the following is the inverse of (fx)?

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject, that is

y = 5x + 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y - 4 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

$\frac{y-4}{5}$ = x
