2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y – 14
Start by simplifying the left side:
3y + 6 = 5y - 14
Next, deduct 3y from both sides:
6 = 2y - 14
Add 14 to both sides:
2y = 20
Now, divide by 2:
y = 20 / 2
y = 10
I believe the correct responses are AB and AE, but I would need an image to confirm.
It could be either C or D, but I think C is the correct choice.
Manuel has opted to construct a fence to define a play area for his dogs, which will be a rectangular shape. Since only three sides require fencing because his house acts as one side of the rectangle, we conclude that the optimal area configuration will consist of two shorter sides each measuring 20 feet and a longer side measuring 40 feet.
