Explanation:

Question 2:

y + 3 = 10

Solution:

Given,y + 3 = 10

By subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

y + 3 – 3 = 10 – 3

⇒ y = 10 – 3

⇒ y = 7

Answer:

Explanation:


(1)/(3)(x + 3 ) - 2(x - 5) = 4(1)/(3)\\\\(1)/(3)x + (1)/(3)*3 + x*(-2) - 5*(-2) = (13)/(3)\\\\(1)/(3)x + 1 - 2x + 10 =(13)/(3)\\\\(1)/(3)x -2x + 1 + 10 =(13)/(3)\\\\(1)/(3)x - (2*3)/(1*3)x + 11 = (13)/(3)\\\\(1)/(3)x-(6)/(3)x =(13)/(3)-11\\\\(1-6)/(3)x=(13)/(3)-(11*3)/(1*3)\\\\(-5)/(3)x=(13-33)/(3)\\\\(-5)/(3)x=(-20)/(3)\\\\x=(-20)/(3)*(3)/(-5)\\\\x=4
