Answers
Answer:
Step by Step Solution
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
7*y-2/5*y-1-(3+7*y/4+5*y)=0
Step by step solution :
STEP1:
y Simplify — 4
Equation at the end of step1:
2 y ((7y-(—•y))-1)-((3+(7•—))+5y) = 0 5 4
STEP2:Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
2.1 Adding a fraction to a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 4 as the denominator :
3 3 • 4 3 = — = ————— 1 4
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
3 • 4 + 7y 7y + 12 —————————— = ——————— 4 4
Equation at the end of step2:
2 (7y+12) ((7y-(—•y))-1)-(———————+5y) = 0 5 4
STEP3:
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 4 as the denominator :
5y 5y • 4 5y = —— = —————— 1 4
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
(7y+12) + 5y • 4 27y + 12 ———————————————— = ———————— 4 4
Equation at the end of step3:
2 (27y + 12) ((7y - (— • y)) - 1) - —————————— = 0 5 4
STEP4:
2 Simplify — 5
Equation at the end of step4:
2 (27y + 12) ((7y - (— • y)) - 1) - —————————— = 0 5 4
STEP5:
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
5.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator :
7y 7y • 5 7y = —— = —————— 1 5
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
5.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
7y • 5 - (2y) 33y ————————————— = ——— 5 5
Equation at the end of step5:
33y (27y + 12) (——— - 1) - —————————— = 0 5 4
STEP6:
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
6.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator :
1 1 • 5 1 = — = ————— 1 5
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
6.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
33y - (5) 33y - 5 ————————— = ——————— 5 5
Equation at the end of step6:
(33y - 5) (27y + 12) ————————— - —————————— = 0 5 4
STEP7:
STEP8:
Pulling out like terms :
8.1 Pull out like factors :
27y + 12 = 3 • (9y + 4)
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
8.2 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 5
The right denominator is : 4
