Answer:
Explanation:
[to solve for y, first use the properties of equality to simplify the equation]
5y + 3 = 8y − 5 + 2y
5y + 3 = (8y + 2y) – 5
[regroup the like terms of y together: commutative property of equality ; adding in a different order will still give you the same result]
5y + 3 = 10y – 5
[combine like terms]
5y + 3 = 10y – 5
[subtract 3 from both sides in order to eliminate the constant term on the left side: subtraction property of equality]
5y = 10y – 8
–10y –10y
[subtract 10 from both sides in order to eliminate the variable term: subtraction property of equality]
-5y = -8
÷(-5) ÷(-5)
[divide both sides by -5 to cancel out the coefficient of y: division property of equality]
y = 8/5

Answer:
6
Step-by-step Explanation:
To simplify , we will look for numbers that 504 can be divided by until there are no perfect square roots under the radical.
[] To do this, we can think of perfect square roots such as 4, 9, 16, etc
We can divide 504 by 36 for an answer of 14, so can be written as
which can be written as 6
because the square root of 36 is 6.
