What is 8(y-5) = 6y-18

y = 11

Explanation:

8(y − 5) = 6y − 18

Simplify both sides of the equation

8(y − 5) = 6y − 18

(8)(y) + (8)(−5) = 6y + −18( Distribute)

8y + −40 = 6y + −18

8y − 40 = 6y − 18

Subtract 6y from both sides

8y − 40 − 6y = 6y − 18 − 6y

2y − 40 = −18

Add 40 to both sides

2y − 40 + 40 = −18 + 40

2y = 22

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2

2y / 2 = 22 / 2

y = 11

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
