Y = 3x - 2.5
You have to get the y by itself.
Subtract 6x to both sides. Then divide by -2.
Answer:
A. 10m - 16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, distribute 3 to all terms within the corresponding parenthesis, and -2 likewise:
3(4m - 2) =
3 * 4m = 12m
3 * -2 = -6
3(4m - 2) = 12m - 6
-2(m + 5) =
-2 * m = -2m
-2 * 5 = -10
-2(m + 5) = -2m -10
Combine like terms:
12m - 6 -2m - 10
12m - 2m - 6 - 10
(12m - 2m) + (-6 - 10)
10m - 16
A. 10m - 16 is your answer.
