8 0

Answer:

8 = y

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find a solution to an algebraic equation such as this one we simply need to isolate the variable. We do this by applying the opposite operation to each side in order to get rid of the other factors and get the variable alone. Like so...

20 = y + 12 ... we need to subtract 12 from both sides to get rid of the 12 on the right side with the variable y.

20 - 12 = y + 12 - 12

8 = y

Finally, we can see that the value of the variable y is 8

Today an exercise equipment store took 15% off the price of a treadmill, and for the next 2 days, it will take 15% off the previ

padilas [110]

To find the price of the treadmill, you can calculate the amount you will pay after each day and then multiply by the percentage that you will pay for each additional day.

You should use 85% (100% - 15%) as the part you will pay for a quicker calculation.

$4000 x 0.85 = $3400 (after the first day)
$3400 x 0.85 = $2890 (after the second day)
$2890 x 0.85 = $2456.50 (after third day)

<span>If the price of the treadmill yesterday was $4000, what will be the price of the treadmill 2 days from now? I interpreted this as the discount would be applied for 3 days.</span>

Y+5=9/2(x+7) in standard form

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

2x-y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 9 = 2(x + 5)

y + 9 = 2x + 10 [distribute]

y = 2x + 1 [subtract 9 from both sides]

y - 2x = 1 [subtract 2x from both sides]

-2x + y = 1 [put x first]
