AysviL [449]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y=−1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−4(y−2)=12

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4(y−2)=12

(−4)(y)+(−4)(−2)=12(Distribute)

−4y+8=12

Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides.

−4y+8−8=12−8

−4y=4

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4y

−4

=

4

−4

y=−1

Leila, Charlie, and Joe have a total of $144 in their wallets. Joe has 4 times what Leila has. Charlie has $6 more than Leila. H
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The amounts of money each has are:

Joe = $92

Charlie = $29

Leila = $23

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will convert the statements into an equation, and use that to solve for the unknowns, as follows:

total amount = $144

Let Leila's share be S

Joe's share = 4 times Leila's = 4S

Charlie's share = $6 + Leila's share = 6 + S

Joe's share + Charlie's Share + Leila's Share = $144

4S + (6 + S) + S = 144

4S + 6 + S + S = 144

4S + 2S + 6 = 144

6S + 6 = 144

6S = 144 - 6 = 138

S = 138 ÷ 6 = $23

Therefore Leila's share 'S' = $23

Joe share= 4S = 4 × 23 = $92

Charlie's share = 6 + 23 = $29

Y=7(15+x) solve for x m888888888888
horsena [70]
         Y = 7(15 + x)   Use the Distributive Property
         Y = 105 + x     Subtract 105 from both sides
Y - 105 = x               Switch the sides to make it easier to read
          x = Y - 105
