What is 17y+42=10y+7?

Question

Please solve it and show me the work.

Answer 1

1. Hi transfer the 7 over to the other side (by subtracting it from 42). You get 17y+35=10y.
2. Then, trasnfer 17y to the other side which will get you 35=-7y. 3.To get value for Y, divide both sides by -7.
4. The final answer is y=-5 (negative 5).
5. You can check your answer by multiplying y by 5. This will be -85+42=-50+7. Both sides equal -43, therefore -5 is correct.

Hope this helps!!

Answer 2

17y + 42 = 10y + 7

1) Subtract 10y from both sides because it will be easier to subtract than 17.
(17y - 10y) + 42 = (10y - 10y) + 7
7y + 42 = 7

2) Subtract 42 from both sides of your equation.
7y = -35

3) Divide by 7 on both sides.
(7y / 7) = (-35 / 7)
y = -5

Answer 3

17y+42=10y+7

you combine the like terms like this

17y-10y and 42-7

and then you just solve the problem.
17y-10y = 7y
and
42-7 = 35.
and then simply 7y = 35. by dividing 7.
your answer is y=5. hope this helps

Answer 4

17y+42=10y+7
subtract 10y and 42 from both sides
7y=(-35)
divide both sides by 7
y=(-5)

Answer 5

17y-10y+42-42=10y-10y+7-42
17y-10y=7-42
7y=-35
y=-5

Answer 6

17y+42=10y+7
subtract 10y from each side
7y+42=7
subtract 42 from each side
7y= -35
divide each side by 7
y= -5

Answer 7

y= -5

1. Isolate your variable by subtracting 10y from both sides:

17y(-10y)+42 = 10y(-10y)+7....it looks like this:

7y+42=7

2. Next, Isolate your y:

7y+42(-42)= 7(-42)....it looks like this:

7y= -35

3. Solve for y by dividing:

y= -5

Ta da!

Answer 8

17y+42=10y+7
7y+42=7
7y= -35
y= -5

Answer 9

17y + 42 = 10y + 7
7y = -35
y = -5

Answer 10

17y+42=10y+7
-10y -10y
7y+42=7
-42 -42
7y = 35

y = 5

i think thats right
