Question

5-4(y+1) = -3

Answer 1

solve for y?

Answer 2

yea.. I think so this is all they gave me

Answer 3

5 - 4y -4 = -3
5 - 4y - 4 + 3 = 0
-4y -4 = 2
-4y = -4
y = 1

Answer 4

Subtract 5 from both sides
−4(y+1)=−3−5
Simplify −3−5 to −8
−4(y+1)=−8
Divide both sides by −4
y+1=−8/−4
Simplify 8/−4 to −8/4
y+1=8/4
Simplify 8/4 to 2
y+1=2
Subtract 1 from both sides
y=2−1
Simplify 2−1 to 1
y=1

Answer 5

Thanks! I have a few more I need help on can you help?

Answer 6

sure

Answer 7

just post them here

Answer 8

-1 = -y/4 - 6

Answer 9

you should have just asked them one by one, not all at once

Answer 10

there

Answer 11

thats for that one

Answer 12

5x - 3 = 22

Answer 13

Add 3 to both sides
5x=22+3
Simplify 22+3 to 25
5x=25
Divide both sides by 5
x=25/5
Simplify 25/5 to 5
x=5

Answer 14

thats that answer

Answer 15

0 = 0.6x - 3.6

Answer 16

Add 3.6 to both sides
3.6=0.6x
Divide both sides by 0.6
3.6/0.6=x
Simplify 3.6/0.6 to 6
6=x
Switch sides
x=6

Answer 17

thats the answer

Answer 18

5 - 7y = 33

Answer 19

Subtract 5 from both sides
−7y=33−5
Simplify 33−5 to 28
−7y=28
Divide both sides by −7
y=28/−7
Simplify 28/−7 to −28/7
y=−28/7
Simplify 28/7 to 4
y=−4

Answer 20

ok

Answer 21

4a + 3 = -5

Answer 22

Subtract 3 from both sides
4a=−5−3
Simplify −5−3 to −8
4a=−8
Divide both sides by 4
a=−8/4
Simplify 8/4 to 2
a=−2

Answer 23

thats the answer

Answer 24

8.6 = 2.1 - 1.3y

Answer 25

i dont know that one sorry

Answer 26

okay what about this one 5x - 11 = -16

Answer 27

@Smileyside

Answer 28

nope sorry

Answer 29

2(y +1) - 5 = 7
