Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent and bisect each other, then

AC = BD , that is

AE + EC = BD [ AE = EC = 6y ]

6y + 6y = 84

12y = 84 ( divide both sides by 12 )

y = 7

What is the solution to <br> 2x -8 = 2(x - 4 ) ?<br><br> ALSO, explain how you solved it.

Genrish500 [490]

First, you gotta simplify. There’s really nothing to simplify so just take it out of the parenthesis.

2x-8=2x-4

Now turn the -8 into a +8. Add it on each side.

2x=2x+8

Now turn the 2x on the right into a negative. Do the same thing you did with the 8.
Now it’s:

0 = 8

That means there’s no solution.
Hope this helped :)
