Question

Is the equation true, false, or open?
4y+8=6y+3

a. true the expressions are the same for all values of the variables.
b. false the expressions are never the same
c. open there is a variable

igreen · Answer

4y + 8 = 6y + 3

Subtract 8 to both sides:

4y = 6y - 5

Subtract 6y to both sides:

-2y = -5

Divide -2 to both sides:

y = -2/5 or 0.4

Sorry that's -5/-2 or 5/2 or 2.5
