So to find the answer you want to isolate the y. So the first thing you want to do is to move everything to the opposite side of the = sign. You start by adding 10 to both sides.
10+ 5y -10 = -25 +10
5y = -15.
the tens cancel out on the left side and on the right you get left with -15/
Since y is being multiplied by 5 you always want to do the opposite so you divide by 5.
5y/5 = -15/5
y = -3
It's hard to explain but you just have to remember that what you do to one side you must do to the other to keep the equation balanced.
Answer:
k=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5-7k=-4(k+1)-3
Distribute
5-7k=-4k-4-3
Combine like terms
5-7k=-4k-7
Add 7k to each side
5-7k +7k = -4k+7k-7
5 = 3k-7
Add 7 to each side
5+7 = 3k-7+7
12 = 3k
Divide by 3
12/3 = 3k/3
4=k
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let her brother's age be x
Sarah is 2x + 4
X=30
Put in proportions x/45 = 18/27.
Cross multiply and get 27x= 45 x 18
Or 27X = 810.
Next, divide by 27 on both sides to get X=30.
