To solve, you would first take the equation y-5=-8, and add 5 on each sides. (To solve an equation, you need to isolate the variables. Adding 5 on both sides will cancel out the "- 5". in order to do this you must do it to both sides so it will still be even.) You should now have Y = -3. to check this, you can say "-3 - 5 =", and your answer will be -8.
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is
a= 2
b=3
c= 8
Non proportional it should be
❄ Hi there,
let us start by considering this: What should we do to get x all by itself?
Since it's
- divided by 4
- multiplied by -1
we should
- multiply (both sides) by 4
- divide (both sides) by -1
So, let's start.


When we divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we do "the inequality flip" and <em>flip the inequality sign</em>.

16 gal = 200 mi
X gal = 350
16/200 = X/350
Cross multiply divide
16(350) = 200(X) > 5600 = 200X
Solve for X
5600/28
X = 28
