Consider the linear equation provided below:

−2(y−8)+3y=4(y−1)−y+10 -2(y - 8) + 3y = 4(y - 1) - y + 10

Which of the following numbers correctly satisfies this equation?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The correct value that satisfies the equation is 5.
The correct answer is found by first distributing the values outside the parentheses, maintaining the positive sign when multiplying -2 by -8. This results in -2y + 16 + 3y = 4y - 4 - y + 10. Combining like terms simplifies the equation to y + 16 = 3y + 6. Finally, isolating the variable by subtracting y and 6 from both sides gives 10 = 2y, which divides cleanly to 5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the outside coefficients into their respective parentheses.
−2y+16+3y=4y−4−y+10 -2y + 16 + 3y = 4y - 4 - y + 10
Distribution eliminates the parentheses, ensuring careful attention to multiplying the negative coefficient (−2×−8=+16-2 \times -8 = +16).
2
Combine the like variable terms and constant terms on each side independently.
y+16=3y+6 y + 16 = 3y + 6
Simplifying each side makes it easier to track and isolate the variable in the next steps.
3
Isolate the variable terms on one side by subtracting yy from both sides.
16=2y+6 16 = 2y + 6
Gathering all variable terms on a single side is required to solve for the unknown.
4
Isolate the constant terms by subtracting 6 from both sides, then divide by 2.
10=2y⇒y=5 10 = 2y \Rightarrow y = 5
Using inverse operations isolates yy to reveal its final numerical value.

Distribute the 3 on the left side.
3p+12=4p+6 3p + 12 = 4p + 6
This expands the parentheses so like terms can be combined.
4
Subtract 3p from both sides.
12=p+6 12 = p + 6
This groups all variable terms on the right side of the equation.
5
Subtract 6 from both sides.
p=6 p = 6
This isolates the variable p to find its final value.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The correct value is 4.
The equation is solved by first distributing the coefficients across the parentheses, which yields 5−6h+8=6h−4h−16−35 - 6h + 8 = 6h - 4h - 16 - 3. Combining like terms on both sides simplifies the equation to 13−6h=2h−1913 - 6h = 2h - 19. Adding 6h6h and 1919 to both sides isolates the variable, resulting in 32=8h32 = 8h. Dividing by 88 gives the final answer of 44.

Apply the distributive property.
5−6h+8=6h−4h−16−35 - 6h + 8 = 6h - 4h - 16 - 3
Multiply the terms inside the parentheses by their outside coefficients, carefully distributing the negative signs.
2
Combine like terms on the left side.
13−6h=6h−4h−16−313 - 6h = 6h - 4h - 16 - 3
Combine the constant terms 55 and 88.
3
Combine like terms on the right side.
13−6h=2h−1913 - 6h = 2h - 19
Combine the variable terms (6h−4h=2h6h - 4h = 2h) and the constant terms (−16−3=−19-16 - 3 = -19).
4
Isolate the variable hh.
13+19=2h+6h13 + 19 = 2h + 6h
Add 6h6h to both sides and add 1919 to both sides to group the variables and constants.
5
Solve for the final value.
32=8h→h=432 = 8h \rightarrow h = 4
Simplify the addition and divide by 88 to find hh.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

3
The correct answer is found by first distributing the outer values into the parentheses, taking special care to distribute the negative sign accurately so that −2(−5)=10-2(-5) = 10. After expanding, the equation becomes −6p+10+4p=3p+15−20-6p + 10 + 4p = 3p + 15 - 20. Combining the like terms on each side reduces the equation to −2p+10=3p−5-2p + 10 = 3p - 5. Adding 2p2p to both sides and adding 55 to both sides isolates the terms, resulting in 15=5p15 = 5p. Finally, dividing both sides by 5 yields a value of 3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the constants into the parentheses on both sides of the equation.
−6p+10+4p=3p+15−20-6p + 10 + 4p = 3p + 15 - 20
Expanding the grouped terms is necessary to access and combine all the variable and constant terms.
2
Combine the like terms on each side of the equation separately.
−2p+10=3p−5-2p + 10 = 3p - 5
Simplifying each side independently reduces the complexity before moving variables across the equals sign.
3
Isolate the variable by moving all pp terms to one side and all constants to the opposite side.
10+5=3p+2p10 + 5 = 3p + 2p, which simplifies to 15=5p15 = 5p
Adding 2p2p and adding 55 to both sides gathers the unknown variable exclusively to the right and constants to the left.
4
Divide by the coefficient of the variable to solve for pp.
p=3p = 3
Dividing both sides by 5 leaves the variable pp completely isolated, providing the final solution.

The correct answer is 4. To solve the equation, first distribute the outer terms across the parentheses on both sides: −2(4p−5)-2(4p - 5) becomes −8p+10-8p + 10, 13(15p−12)\frac{1}{3}(15p - 12) becomes 5p−45p - 4, and −(7p−14)-(7p - 14) becomes −7p+14-7p + 14. Combining like terms on the left side (−8p+5p-8p + 5p and 10−410 - 4) gives −3p+6-3p + 6. On the right side, combining 2p2p and −7p-7p gives −5p+14-5p + 14. Setting these equal gives −3p+6=−5p+14-3p + 6 = -5p + 14. Adding 5p5p to both sides yields 2p+6=142p + 6 = 14, and subtracting 6 from both sides gives 2p=82p = 8. Dividing by 2 results in p=4p = 4.

On the right side, distributing the 3 results in 3k+6+43k + 6 + 4, which simplifies to 3k+103k + 10. Equating both simplified sides gives 8k−15=3k+108k - 15 = 3k + 10. Subtracting 3k3k from both sides leaves 5k−15=105k - 15 = 10, and adding 1515 to both sides yields 5k=255k = 25. Dividing by 5 results in k=5k = 5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the fractional terms on the left side of the equation.
6k−9−6+2k6k - 9 - 6 + 2k
Multiplying 34\frac{3}{4} by (8k−12)(8k - 12) yields 6k−96k - 9. Multiplying −25-\frac{2}{5} by (15−5k)(15 - 5k) yields −6+2k-6 + 2k. Paying close attention to the negative sign during distribution is critical.
2
Distribute the terms on the right side of the equation.
3k+6+43k + 6 + 4
Multiplying 33 by (k+2)(k + 2) expands the expression, setting up the right side for simplification.
3
Combine like terms on both sides of the equal sign.
8k−15=3k+108k - 15 = 3k + 10
On the left side, combine the variable terms (6k+2k=8k6k + 2k = 8k) and constant terms (−9−6=−15-9 - 6 = -15). On the right side, combine the constant terms (6+4=106 + 4 = 10).
4
Isolate the variable kk to find its value.
5k=255k = 25, which simplifies to k=5k = 5.
Subtract 3k3k from both sides to group the variables on the left (5k−15=105k - 15 = 10). Then, add 1515 to both sides to group the constants on the right (5k=255k = 25). Dividing both sides by 55 yields the final solution.

Cevap: 13

Cevap

The correct value for the variable is 13.
The correct value is found by performing the inverse operations in the correct order. First, subtract 6 from both sides to get 3h = 39. Then, divide both sides by 3 to find that h = 13.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Isolate the term with the variable by subtracting 6 from both sides of the equation.
3h=45−63h = 45 - 6
3h=393h = 39
This removes the constant term from the left side, keeping the equation balanced.
2
Solve for hh by dividing both sides of the equation by 3.
h=393h = \frac{39}{3}
h=13h = 13
Dividing by the coefficient of the variable isolates hh completely.

What is the final value of pp?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The correct value for the variable is 3.
The correct answer is 3. Distributing the terms on both sides yields 4p−10+3p=−3p+24+2p−104p - 10 + 3p = -3p + 24 + 2p - 10. Combining like terms results in 7p−10=−p+147p - 10 = -p + 14. Adding pp to both sides and adding 10 to both sides gives 8p=248p = 24. Dividing by 8 isolates the variable, resulting in p=3p = 3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the coefficients to remove parentheses on both sides of the equation.
4p−10+3p=−3p+24+2p−104p - 10 + 3p = -3p + 24 + 2p - 10
To simplify the equation, all terms inside parentheses must be multiplied by their outer coefficients. Note that 23×6p=4p\frac{2}{3} \times 6p = 4p and 23×−15=−10\frac{2}{3} \times -15 = -10.
2
Combine like terms on each side of the equation independently.
7p−10=−p+147p - 10 = -p + 14
Combining variable terms and constant terms on the same side simplifies the equation structure before isolating the variable.
3
Move all variable terms to one side of the equation.
8p−10=148p - 10 = 14
Adding pp to both sides cancels the −p-p on the right side, grouping all unknowns on the left.
4
Isolate the variable by moving constants to the other side and dividing.
8p=24⇒p=38p = 24 \Rightarrow p = 3
Adding 10 to both sides moves the constant, and dividing both sides by the coefficient 8 solves for pp.

9
By successfully applying the distributive property on both sides, combining the variable and constant terms, and isolating the variable, the equation perfectly balances when the variable is exactly 9.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the coefficients and negative signs across the parentheses on both sides of the equation.
10t−20−3t=4t+8−t+810t - 20 - 3t = 4t + 8 - t + 8
Distribution removes the parentheses, allowing individual terms to be combined.
2
Combine like terms on each side of the equation.
7t−20=3t+167t - 20 = 3t + 16
Simplifying each side individually makes it easier to balance the equation.
3
Subtract 3t3t from both sides of the equation.
4t−20=164t - 20 = 16
This groups all the variable terms on one side of the equation.
4
Add 20 to both sides and divide by 4.
4t=36  ⟹  t=94t = 36 \implies t = 9
Isolating the variable determines the final numerical solution.
