OpenStudy (kenrick143):

What do you want to do with these?

OpenStudy (queen_of_life):

solve for y

OpenStudy (kenrick143):

is x a variable or operation?

OpenStudy (queen_of_life):

that is a multiplication sign

OpenStudy (kenrick143):

So you could start simplifying the parenthesis.

OpenStudy (mr.hoot):

are there answer choices?

OpenStudy (queen_of_life):

no just solve for x

OpenStudy (mr.hoot):

ok :)

OpenStudy (kenrick143):

You just said earlier that, dolve for y.

OpenStudy (kenrick143):

*solve

OpenStudy (mr.hoot):

OpenStudy (kenrick143):

@queen_of_life you mean add, or multiply? \[y+5 (2-8) + 48\]

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

You can't solve for any variable because this is not an equation. An equation requires an equal sign.
