if it is =0, you can divide the whole equation by 5 to leave 2y+3=0
10y + 8y = 18y = 15 y = 15/18 y = 5/6 = 0.833333.....
10y plus 40 equals 50y.
10y=15y=1.5
25
10y = 9y + 4, so y = 4
The GCF of both numbers is 15
The GCF is 5.
15y+14=2(5y+6) 15y+14=10y+12 15y+14-14=10y+12-14 15y=10y-2 15y-10y=10y-2-10y 5y=-2 y=-2/5
maximum value of 6y+10y
You need at least two terms to find a GCF.
10y = 2y - 6y + 7 10y =-4y + 7 10y +4y = 7 14y = 7 y = 1/2 = .5
