Distribute the 2 through the parentheses
on the right side of the equation.
2(y) is 2y and 2(2) is 4.
So the problem now reads 6 = 2y + 4.
Now we can subtract 4 from both
sides of the equation to get 2 = 2y.
Now divide both sides of the
equation by 2 and <em>1 = y</em>.
Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the piece of rural land sold ten years ago for 40000 and that the price for the same land this year is $800 more per acre, and it sold for 60000.
The size of the piece of land in acres will then be:
40000 + 800x = 60000
800x = 60000 - 40000
800x = 20000
x = 20000/800
x = 25
The land is 25 acres
Hole? It depends how big it is. Since there is no hole being depicted in this question, the answer is inexcusably 2ft
