Answer:
y= - 1/2 (negative half) = -0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
−6y+3(12y)=20(y−1)+15
Multiply 3 and 12 to get 36.
−6y+36y=20(y−1)+15
Combine −6y and 36y to get 30y.
30y=20(y−1)+15
Use the distributive property to multiply 20 by y−1.
30y=20y−20+15
Add −20 and 15 to get −5.
30y=20y−5
Subtract 20y from both sides.
30y−20y=−5
Combine 30y and −20y to get 10y.
10y=−5
Divide both sides by 10
y= -5/10
Reduce the fraction -5/10 = -0.5 to lowest terms by extracting and cancelling out 5 .
Knowns:
C = mx + b
m = 367
b = 1500
C = 367x + 1500
Cost (c) = 16,600
16600 = 367x + 1500
subtract 1500 from both sides
15,100 = 367x
Divide both sides by 367
x = 41.14

Well what I would do is split the 40% into 20% so from 40% to 20% that is /2. So 32/2=16 so 20% of a number is 16, we know there is 5, 20% in 100% so multiply 16 and 5 which gives you 80. Now 25% of 80 is the same as 80*.25 or 80/4 which is 20
