Answers:
8. 12x+3= 27
move 3 to the other side , sign changes from +3 to -3
12x+3-3=27-3
12x= 24
divide by 12 for both sides
12x/12=24/12
x= 2
9. 6(y-10)=42
mutiply the bracket by 6
(6)(y)(6)(-10)= 6y-60
6y-60= 42
move -60 to the other side, sign changes from -60 to +60
6y-60+60=42+60
6y=102
divide by 6
6y/6=102/6
y=17
10. 9x-2=4x+13
move +4x to the other side
9x-4x-2= 4x-4x+13
5x-2= 13
5x-2+2= 13+2
5x= 15
divide by 5 for both sides
5x/5= 15/5
x= 3
11. 4/3y+5/2y= 1
find the common denominator for both of the fractions which is 6.
Mutiply by 2 for 4/3y .
4(2)/3(2)y=8/6y
Mutiply by 3 for 5/2y
5(3)/2(3y)= 15/6y
8/6y+15/6y= 23/6y
23/6y= 1
Mutiply both sides by 6/23
23/6y(6/23)= 1 (6/23)
Cross out 6 and 6 , divide by 6 and then becomes 1.
Cross out 23 and 23, divide by 23 and then becomes 1.
1*1*y=y
y= 6/23
Idk what awser is just tryns get points
So find the difference between 1995 and 2022 to make it easier
2022-1995=27
so the rephrased question is
when hazel was x years old, she was 25 years older than son gary who was y old at that time (equation is x is 25 more than y or x=25+y)
in 27 years, (this means x+27 and y+27) hazel's age will be 150% of gary's age (x+27= 150% of y+27)
percent means parts out of 100 so 150%=150/100=15/10=1.5
'of' in math means multiply so
the equations are
x=25+y
x+27=1.5(y+27)
subsitute 25+y for x in second euation
25+y+27=1.5(y+27)
add like terms
y+52=1.5(y+27)
I personally dislike decimals to multiply both sides by 2 to make 2 0.5's or 1 (you are technically supposed to distribute or divide both sides by 1.5) so
2y+104=3(y+27)
distribute
2y+104=3y+81
subtract 2y from both sides
104=y+81
subtract 81 from both sides
23=y
subsitute
x=25+y
x=25+23
x=48
Hazel was 48 and Gary was 23 in the year of 1995
59 degrees!
because you set up your problem: 3c+2+2c-7=90
then combine all like terms: 5c-5=90
Add 5 to both sides: 5c=95
then divide both sides by 5: c=19
Plug in your answer: 3(19)+2=59
