What is the result of adding these two equations?
-52 - 9y = 3
5.2 - 9y = -2

5.7-18y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

52-9y=3

5.2-9y=-2

or,57.2-18y=1

-18y = 46.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding Left hand side elements together as well as right hand side

Eq1 = equation 1

Eq2 = equation 2

LHS(left hand side of the equation)

RHS(right hand side of the equation)

LHS of Eq1 + LHS of Eq2 = RHS of Eq1 + RHS of Eq2

-52 -9y + 5.2 -9y = 3 - 2

=> -9y -9y - 52 + 5.2 = 1

=> -18y - 46.8 = 1

=> -18y - 46.8 = 0

=> -18y = 46.8

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
