Hi
2/3 y+y-4=31
Simplify both sides of the equation
2/3 y-4=31
Combine like terms
(2/3 y+y)+(-4)=31
5/3 y-4=31
Add 4 to both sides
5/3 y-4+4=31+4
5/3 y=35
Multiply both sides 3/5
(3/5)*(5/3 y)=(3/5)*35
y=21
I hope that's help !
2 cakes - Theresa's and Joe's
Theresa's cake had 6 pieces after she cut it. (2 times the size of Joe's pieces)
Joe's cake had 12 pieces after he cut it. (1/2 the size of Theresa's pieces)
We know that 8/12ths of ONE cake were eaten and that Joe ate 2 of his pieces.
We want to know how many pieces Theresa ate of her cake. Keeping in mind that her pieces are equal to 2 of Joe's pieces we can solve this question.
8/12 eaten total
if 2/12 by Joe
then 8-2 = 6, 6/12 by Theresa
(BUT: Theresa's pieces were twice the size of Joe's so we will divide by 2)
6/12 = 3/6
Answer: Theresa ate 3 pieces of her cake

Data:
x: number of months
y: tree's height
Tipical grow: 0.22
Fifteen months into the observation, the tree was 20.5 feet tall: x=15 y=20.5ft (15,20.5)
In this case the slope (m) or rate of change is the tipical grow.
m=0.22
To find the line's slope-intercep equation you use the slope (m) and the given values of x and y (15 , 20.5) in the next formula to find the y-intercept (b):
Use the slope(m) and y-intercept (b) to write the equation:
A) This line's slope-intercept equation is: y=0.22x+17.2
B) To find the height of the tree after 29 months you substitute in the equation the x for 29 and evaluate to find the y:
Then, after 29 months the tree would be 23.58 feet in height
C) In this case as you have the height and need to find the number of moths you substitute the y for 29.96feet and solve the equation for x, as follow:
Then, after 58 months the tree would be 29.96feet tall
