Question

Solve for y.
3 (y+p) = p

a. p= -2/3y
b p= -3/2y
c. y= -2/3p
d. y= -3/2p

Answer 1

\[a(b + c) = ab + ac\]
So \(3(y+p) = p\) is the same as \(3y + 3p = p\)

Answer 2

so what one

Answer 3

I told you how to figure it out. I'm not going to just tell you the answer.

Answer 4

how does that formula relate to the awnsers their in fraction form

Answer 5

Because it's not done. You have to solve for y. If you had \(3y + 3p = p\) how would you get \(y\) by itself?

Answer 6

by subtracting 3?

Answer 7

That would give \(3y + 3p - 3 = p - 3\) which doesn't help us much.

Answer 8

soo what do you do

Answer 9

Try again!

Answer 10

hahaha um subtract p

Answer 11

That's getting there. \(3y + 2p = 0\)

Answer 12

Its uh c right?

Answer 13

Yes!

Answer 14

Answer 15

thanks
