Question

Factor the expression completely 8y - 36

Answer 1

y= 4
`(1)/(2)` or y= 4.5

Explanation:

divide both sides by 8, 8y÷8=36÷8

any expression divide by itself equals 1

y=36÷8

write the division as a fractiony=
`(36)/(8)`

reduce it it by 4
`(9)/(2)`

and thats your answer but simplified is y= 4 1/2

Answer 2

ALL yourr doing is just adding 8 and 36

y= 4\frac{1}{2} or y= 4.5
