I REALLY HAVE NOT A CLUE?????? alg 2

Answer 1

please help??? im struggling???

Answer 2

What do you need to do? solve them?

Answer 3

yupp. im struggling w/it

Answer 4

if our helping start at 15 plzzz

Answer 5

Oke

\(\large 5y+1.8=4y-3.2\)

What is the first thing to do

Answer 6

subtract 1.8?

Answer 7

??????

Answer 8

yes subtract 1.8 on both sides.

\(\large 5y\cancel{+1.8}=4y-3.2-1.8\)
\(\large 5y=4y-5\)

Answer 9

So what's the next step?

Answer 10

divide 4y?

Answer 11

No, subtract 4y on both sides
\(\large 5y-4y=\cancel{4y}−5\)
what do we have now?

Answer 12

1y=-5 you divide by 1 y=-5

Answer 13

Very good :) So that's the answer.

Now the next one:
\(\large 6a-5=4a+2\)

what's the first step?

Answer 14

subtract 4a??

Answer 15

You could do that, but usually we start with bringing the numbers to the right. Then the letters to the left.

When you'd start with the letter (a in this case) you need to subtract 4a as you said.
\(\large 6a-4a-5=\cancel{4a}+2\)
\(\large 2a-5=2\)
You probably know what to do next

Answer 16

I did mine dif? ):

Answer 17

o wait no I didn't. I did mine like yours, my bad

Answer 18

So what's the next thing you do? :P

Answer 19

+5?????????? next

Answer 20

yes
It'll be \(\large 2a=7\)
now only 1 thing left

Answer 21

a=3 1/2

Answer 22

divide by 2.. a=3and1/2

Answer 23

Yep, so \(\large a = 3\frac{1}{2}\) or 3.5

Answer 24

Could you do \(\large 4y-8-2y+5=0\) ?

Answer 25

mind walking me thru a few more pleaseee???? I haven't passed this alg 1 test and im a senior in alg 2 I HAve to know this stuff before they get harder, pleaseee help w/more???

Answer 26

What is the first thing to do?

\(\large 4y−8−2y+5=0\)

Answer 27

would the first line be: 2y-3=0????

Answer 28

exactly, you can combine like terms first :)
Now what?

Answer 29

idk?

Answer 30

we have \(2y-3=0\) now,
You need to bring the numbers to the right side of the equation.

Answer 31

so...???

Answer 32

So you add 3 on both sides
\(2y\cancel{-3}=0+3\)
\(2y=3\)

Answer 33

1and1/2 answer?

Answer 34

yes \(\dfrac{3}2\to1\dfrac{1}{2}\)

Answer 35

So y=1.5

Answer 36

help with 18-26????? pleaseeeeeeee

Answer 37

18-26??

Answer 38

distribute 6

Answer 39

18 through 26

Answer 40

oh oke,
first 18:
\(\large 6(n-4)=3n\)

Answer 41

and yes distribute 6 :)

Answer 42

3 word story problems. 4 equations

Answer 43

subtract 3n?

Answer 44

No first distribute 6

Answer 45

What do you get when you distribute 6?

Answer 46

I did that. 6n-24=3n then subtract 3n next???

Answer 47

Yes, what will the equation be when you subtract 3n on both sides?

Answer 48

6n-3n-24=3n-3n

Answer 49

3n-24=0?

Answer 50

exactly :)
now bring the number to the right

Answer 51

idk????now

Answer 52

there's -24 on the left. How do you get it to the right?

Answer 53

add 24?

Answer 54

Yes :)
So you'll get 3n=24

now only 1 thing left to do

Answer 55

3n-24+24=0+24
3n=24
divide 3
answer 8?

Answer 56

Very good!

Answer 57

Last one: \(\large 5(2-g)=0 \)

Answer 58

last??? ): ): ): walking me thru them helps alottt for me to understand. don't stop pleaseee)": )';

Answer 59

distribute 5
10-5g=0
subtract 10

Answer 60

See, you already know how to solve it :)
What's next?
We now have: \(\large -5g=-10\)

Answer 61

divide -5

Answer 62

g= -2?

Answer 63

when you divide -10 by -5 the -'s cancel eachother out. So the answer is 2 :)

Answer 64

leaving??? )":
