7y+3=4y−18

y =
(type your answer as a number)

y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for 'y', we need to isolate it, meaning to separate it from everything else. You move numbers in the equation around by canceling them out, which you do with opposite or reverse operations. (Addition and subtraction are opposites. Division and multiplication are opposites).

First, bring all of the numbers with 'y' to the left, and bring all of the numbers without 'y' to the right. Then isolate y.

7y + 3 = 4y - 18              Move 'y' to the left.

7y - 4y + 3 = 4y - 4y - 18     Subtract 4y from both sides.

7y - 4y + 3 = -18          Notice 4y - 4y cancelled out. Combine like terms on the left. 7y and -4y both have 'y'.

3y + 3 = -18                Move the numbers to the right.

3y + 3 - 3 = -18 - 3      Subtract 3 from both sides.

3y = -18 - 3             +3 and -3 cancelled out. Combine like terms on right.

3y = -21                 Cancel out the '3' attached to 'y'.

3y/3 = -21/3         Divide both sides by 3.

y = -21/3              3y/3 becomes just 'y' because 3 ÷ 3 is 1.

y = -7                  Answer for y.

answer: no

step-by-step explanation:

you are only given the cost not the amount of pounds.

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
