Question

Which of these is a simplified form of the equation 6y + 4 = 8 + 2y + 2y?

6y = 8
10y = 12
2y = 4
4y = 12

Answer 1

Combine all the like terms on both sides of the equation.

Answer 2

Can you combine it to this?\[6y + 4 = 8 +4y\]

Answer 3

thanks what would i get

Answer 4

no u cant

Answer 5

Yea, now can you put the y's on one side and the constants on the other?

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

i think u can

Answer 8

Sure, and what would you get?

Answer 9

im not sure ;(

Answer 10

When you move a term over the equality sign, you just negate the value.

Answer 11

For example, \[x + 2y = 3\] is equivalent to \[x = 3 - 2y\]

Answer 12

Can you try moving the terms over to the other side?

Answer 13

Notice how in my example, 2y on the left hand side becomes -2y on the right hand side.

Answer 14

so C? :)

Answer 15

Exactly!
