plz help me? what is the value of y? plz explain

Answer 1

28/8

Explanation:

in easy way just cross multiplication.

so u solve this equation by saying.

8(y+2) =11*4

u open brackets then u get

8y+16=44

u collect like terms

8y=44-16

8y=28

so u want the value of y not 8y

so u divide by 8 both sides

u get y =28/8

or in simplest form u get 7/2 by simplifying...

hope it helped...

Answer 2

For proportions just cross multiply.

8(y+2)=44

8y+16=44

8y=28

y=28/8
