Thx for letting us know.
Then what happened?
You said X = (5y+1) / (y-2)
Multiply each side by (y-2):
X(y-2) = (5y+1)
Eliminate parentheses:
Xy - 2X = 5y + 1
Add 2X to each side:
Xy = 5y + 1 + 2X
Subtract 5y from each side:
(X-5)y = 1 + 2X
Divide each side by (X-5):
<em>y = (1+2X) / (X-5) </em>
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
9x - 8(x - 6) = 52
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- Distribute -8: 9x - 8x + 48 = 52
- Combine like terms: x + 48 = 52
- Subtract 48 on both sides: x = 4
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
9(4) - 8(4 - 6) = 52
36 - 8(-2) = 52
36 + 16 = 52
52 = 52
Answer:
x=6
