Question

y – 0.7 = –2.2

y =

Answer 1

What have you learned from the previous two problems that you could use here to solve for y? How would you isolate y?

Answer 2

can sombody else help me not somebody that dosent make fun of my name

Answer 3

First step is to add 0.7 to both sides :)

Answer 4

\[y−0.7+0.7=−2.2+0.7\]

Answer 5

The left side cancels out since -0.7 + 0.7 = 0. The left side is left with y.

\[y = -2.2 + 0.7\]

Answer 6

29.0

Answer 7

Nope, add: \[−2.2+0.7\]

Answer 8

-3.2

Answer 9

Nope, the answer would be -3.2 if the problem was to add: -2.2 + -0.7.

Answer 10

Actually, what you need to do is to "combine." It's true that 2.2+0.7 is 2.9, but that's not the problem given you.

Instead: combine: -2.2
+0.9

Answer 11

13.0

Answer 12

Determine whether that is reasonable or not. Does -2 + 1 equal approx. 13?

Answer 13

Answer 14

An answer without an explanation is no good. You will not learn :(

Answer 15

Answer 16

Sorry, but no. The whole idea here is to help YOU solve your own problems.
Giving out answers is against the rules.
You'd save time by learning how to do these problems properly.

Does -2+1 approx. equal 13? Yes or No.

Answer 21

Answer 22

i am failing math that was the only thing that could help me :(

Answer 23

I'm truly sorry if that's the case. What could you do now so that next time you'll be better prepared?

Answer 24

In the end it's what YOU do that will make the difference between your passing or failing.

Answer 25

@mathmale told you something that YOU can do to be prepared: You'd save time by learning how to do these problems properly.

Answer 26

not ask you to help know i am being held back

Answer 27

i am sorry i was just really mad

Answer 28

Sorry, Confusedboy700, but I judge that to be a very immature response. You must take responsibility for your own learning. Wendy and I offered repeatedly to walk you through the steps necessary to solve these problems, but in the end you just asked for answers wtihout having demonstrated any understanding. This is not acceptable and is not helping you. Cool off, change your attitude and come back when you're ready to learn.

Answer 29

i said i am sorry

Answer 30

Thank you; I accept your apology. Why not take a break, think things through and then come back willing to learn and practice. I'd be happy to help you, and am sure Wendy would also.

Answer 31

Yes, I would be delighted to help you :)
