Is -¼ + 2 ¼y + 2 - y equivalent to y + 2 ?

Juliette [100K]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

$-\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{4}y+2-y=y+2$

$(-\frac{1}{4}+2)+(2\frac{1}{4}y-y)=y+2\\$

$(\frac{(-1)+(4)(2)}{4})+(\frac{9}{4}y-y)=y+2$

$(\frac{-1+8}{4})+(\frac{(9)(1)-(4)(1)}{4} )y=y+2$

$(\frac{7}{4})+(\frac{9-4}{4} )y=y+2$

$(\frac{7}{4})+(\frac{5}{4})y=y+2$
