Question

Solve for y: y + 8 = 6

y = 3

y = 5

y = -3

y = -5

Answer 1

none of the above

Answer 2

answer should be -2

Answer 3

yeah thats what i got.. ugh.

Answer 4

Hey! Please guide the asker next time. Thanks.

Answer 5

and i also got -3 for this....
Solve for x: -2(x - 3) = 10

x = -2

x = 2

x = -8

x = 8

Answer 6

\[y+8=6\]
subtract 8 on both sides to isolate y
\[y+8-8=6-8\]
\[y=?\]

Answer 7

nevermind on the second question.

Answer 8

distribute
\[-2x+6=10\]
in order to solve for x, isolate it by subtracting 6 on both sides
\[-2x+6-6=10-6\]
\[-2x=4\]
we are looking for the value of x, not -2x. so we divide both sides by -2
