Answer:

(-7/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

the line is -7x -8y =12

its slope = -(-7/-8)= -7/8

it passes through P(-3, 1)

(y-1)=(-7/8)(x+3)

y-1 = (-7/8)x - 21/8

y = (-7/8)x -13/8

Does anyone know the value of y in the equation 2(4y-1)=6 ?

sashaice [31]

Answer:

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2(4y-1)=6

2. Distributive Property: 8y - 2 = 6

3. Add 2 to both sides to get 8y alone: 8y - 2 + 2 = 6 +2

4. To simplify further divide each side by 8 to get y = a # 8y/8 = 8/8 = ( y = 1 )
