Sense there's only a y, you'd assume y is 1 or 1y.
you'd make the 1 a negative 1 to get rid of the subtraction sign.
you'd add together the 2 ys making it 2y. then add -1 + 3, which would be 2.
so, the answer would be 2y + 2.

No, Matt did not solve the equation correctly
Correct Answer: x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x + 2) = 30
Step 1: Distribute
4x + 2 = 30 This is his mistake, he should completely distribute 4
to x and 2
Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides/Isolate x
4x = 28 This part is done correctly, but wrong because of Step 1
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4
x = 7 This is correct, but again, he messed up on Step 1

Let's find the correct answer to this equation:</h3><h3>4(x +2) = 30</h3>
Step 1: Distribute
Remember to distribute 4 to all terms in the parenthesis.
4(x + 2) = 4(x) + 4(2)
= 4x + 8
4x + 8 = 30
Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides/Isolate x
Move all the terms that do not belong to x to the other side. We can do this by subtracting 8 from both sides (opposite operation of adding 8)
4x + 8 = 30
4x = 30 - 8
4x = 32
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4/Isolate x
Now we want x by itself. Since x is being multiplied by 4, we have to use the opposite operation, dividing by 4, to have x on one side by itself
4x = 32
4(x) = 32
x = 32 ÷ 4
x = 8

</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>x+y=434
</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>66 fewer cheeseburgers than hamburgers
</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
</em></u></h2><h2><u><em> </em></u></h2><h2><u><em>y = x - 66

Answer:
Adult=58
Step-by-step explanation:
c=child, a=adult
6.4c+9.7a=1145 equation 1
c+a=149 equation 2
a=149-c modified equation 2 to isolate a
6.4c+9.7(149-c)=1145 substitute value of a from equation 1 into equation 2
6.4c+1445.3-9.7c=1145
-3.3c=-300.3
c=91
solve for a
c+a=149
91+a=149
a=58
Check answer:
6.4c+9.7a=1145
6.4(91)+9.7(58)=1145
582.40+562.60=1145
1145=1145
