This is false because 20-8 is 12 and 12 times 5 isnt 17

Please help me with number six

Tpy6a [65]

$w = 2x = 2( \frac{y}{3}) \\ v = 2w = 2 \times 2( \frac{y}{3} ) \\ v + w + x + y = 180 \\ \frac{4}{3} y + \frac{2}{3} y + \frac{y}{3} + y = 180 \\ y( \frac{4}{3} + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3} + 1) = 180 \\ y = \frac{180}{()}$

Simplify x^3y^4/3y^4

yan [13]

The given expression is:
(x^3 * y^4) / (3y^4)

We can notice that the term y^4 is a common term found in both the numerator and the denominator of the given expression, therefore, we can cancel this term from the both numerator and denominator (as if you divided both numerator and denominator by y^4).

Doing this, we will have the simplified form of the expression as follows:
(x^3) / (3)
