x + 5/2 = 2(x + 3)
D. -7/3
For 1 multiply both sides by 3 which gives you 3y-y=12. Then combine like terms 2y=12. Lastly divide both sides by 2 and you get y=6. And for 3 first multiply both sides by 4 which gives you 6y-32=y+8. After that combine like terms 6y-y-32=8. Now add the equation together 5y=40 and then divide by 5 and get y=8
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
They are <em><u>not</u></em><u> </u>equivalent. When you <em>distribute the 1/4</em>, the <em><u>expressions are different</u></em>.
Carlos is wrong since when subtracted 2175 from 1833 you get 342 so that's about one third of what he said.
