haha

Answer 23

The suggestion was for you all.

It can be answered like this :

4y + 15 = –5y + 9.

Add 5y both sides :

4y + 15 + \(\color{blue}{5y} \) = -5y + 9 + \(\color{blue}{5y}\)

9y + 15 = 9

Subtract 15 both sides

9y + 15 - \(\color{blue}{15}\) = 9 - \(\color{blue}{15}\)

9y = -6

Divide 9 both sides

y = -6/9 or -2/3

Answer 26

It is not the matter of taking the spotlight of mine, even I am happy to see some one helping but it should be in nice manner.

FriedRice, I agree that you tried to help but that's not perfect help.

We ought to involve the user here too.

Answer 27

ok next time or next person ill try but i wasnt trying to be rude or anything it just that i wanted to make my point.

Answer 28

Like, you ask the user : What have you tried yet? and then the user explains what he/she has tried yet. This will make us sure that the user is not seeking of just answers.

Not blaming you or anyone, but just suggesting that it would have been better if you have involved the user in conversation.

Answer 29

Good. I am sorry, if I in any manner offended you.

Thanks for considering my suggestion.
