2(10 + 4y) - 3(3y - 7)


4(5 + 2y - 5y - 17)


4(5 + 2y) - 3(3y + 7)


-(y + 1)


-(1 - y)


y - 1

Answer 1

Answer:

4(5+2y)=3(3y+7)  and   -(y+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

You combine like terms

20-21 =-1

8y -9y = -1y

so your answer is anything that is the same as -1 - y

2(10+4y-7y-19) =2( -3y-9) = -6y-18    NO

2(10 +4y) - 3(3y-7) =   20 +8y - 9y +21  =    -y +41    NO

4(5+2y-5y-17)= 4(-3y -12) = -12y -48    NO

4(5+2y) - 3(3y+7) = 20 +8y - 9y -21  = -1 = y   YES

-(y+1)= -y-1   YES

-(1-y) = -1+y NO
