Answer:

7) No

8) Yes

Explanation:

7) 15 + 2y = -12 - 4y when y = -0.5

15 + (2*-0.5) = -12 - (4*-0.5)

15 + -1 = -12 - (-2)

15 - 1 = -12 + 2

14 = -10

The numbers are different on both sides so -0.5 is not a solution

8) 5 - 2( 3x + 5 ) = 3 - 10x when x = 2

5 - 2( (3*2) + 5 ) = 3 - (10*2)

5 - 2( 6 + 5 ) = 3 - 20

5 - 2*11 = 3 - 20

5 - 22 = 3 - 20

-17 = -17

The numbers are similar on both sides so 2 is a solution
