5(2y)-y=72

5 (2 y) - y = 72

y = 8

Solution steps

5 (2 y) - y = 72

Remove parentheses:

(a) = a

5 \cdot 2 y - y = 72

Multiply the numbers:

5 \cdot 2 = 10

10 y - y = 72

Add similar elements:

10 y - y = 9 y

9 y = 72

Divide both sides by

9

y = 8

\frac{2 x - 1}{3} = 5

36 - x^{4} y^{4}

k - 3 k = 6 k + 5 - 8 k

2 ∣ 2 x + 5 ∣ + 1 = 3

x^{2} - 14 x + 44 = 0
