y = 6
6y-(2y-5)=29
>distribute the invisible -1 in front of the paranthesis
6y-2y+5=29
>combine like terms & move 5 to the right side w/ 29
4y=24
>divide 4 by both sides to isolate 4
y = 6
They both get their cars washed on every 60th day.
You can solve this equation by finding the lcm (least common multiple):
15 30 45 60 75 90 105
20 40 60 80 100
The lowest common multiple is 60 as it is the first multiple the two have in common.
So, in sixty days, they’ll both get their car washed again

Answer:
Sally has been measuring the tree for 4 months
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct question is as follows;
Sally has been measuring the tree in her yard for a science project. The tree has grown 1/2 of an inch each month and grown a total of 2 inches taller. How many months has Sally been measuring this tree?
.........................................................................................
Solution;
The tree has grown 1/2 of an inch each month and has grown a total of 2 inch taller.
We now need to know the number of months in which the measuring has been taking place.
To know the number of months, we simply need to divide the change in height which is 2 inch by the individual month growth rate which is 1/2 inch
So mathematically, that would be 2/1/2 = 2 * 2 = 4 months
