Question

How do you do this:
7 (y-2) = -y + 8y - 14

2(4b - 3) = 8 - 6

Answer 1

Remove the parenthesis first by using the distributive property

Answer 2

is this rite 7(y-2)= -y+8y-14
7y-14=7y-14
y= 0

2(4b-3)= 8-6
8b-24= 2
8b= 26
b= 13/4

Answer 3

Actually the first one would be 0=0 which means that any number at all would make the sentence true.
