what is x?

Question

2 - 6(y + 4) = 2y - 30

Answer 1

if you mean y it is 1

2-6y-24=2y-30
30-24+2=2y+6y
8=8y
y=1

Answer 2

if you mean what is y, do this
distribute the -6 in to get 2-6y-24=2y-30
then get like terms on each side to get 8=8y
then divide by 8, to get y=1

Answer 3

First use the distributive property.

-6 times y and -6 times 4 and you have:

2-6y-24=2y-30

add like terms (numbers with variables added to numbers with variables and numbers without variables added to numbers without variables).

2 plus -24

So far:

-6y-22=2y-30

get these like terms on one side (variables on one side, non-variables on the other).

22 added to -30 = -8

So:

-6y=2y-8

Now, the y's need to be put together:

-8y= -8

Divide:

y = 1

There you go.

Answer 4

Y = 52/8

Answer 5

well i am assuming you mean what is y?
2-6y-24=2y-30
-6y-22=2y-30
-22=8y-30
8=8y
y=1

Answer 6

Can't see x in your question
2-6(y+4)=2y-30
2-6y-24=2y-30
-6y-2y=-30-2
-8y=-32
8y=32
y=32/8
y=4
Hope it helps

Answer 7

2-6y-24=2y-30

-22-6y=2y-30

-8y=-8
y=1

Answer 8

You can't find the x because there isn't a x in the problem, unlss you forgot to put it in the problem, or you're actually asking for the y.

Answer 9

the 25th letter in the alphabet.

Answer 10

I think you mean "What is is y?"

y=1
