what volume of Y would make the expression Y -6 + 7 + 2b - 3b + 1 equivalent to 5b + 2?
(1 point)
To find the volume of Y that would make the expression equivalent to 5b + 2, we need to isolate the variable Y.
Y - 6 + 7 + 2b - 3b + 1 = 5b + 2
Combining like terms gives:
Y - 3 - b + 8 = 5b + 2
Simplifying further:
Y + 5 = 5b + 2
Subtracting 5 from both sides:
Y = 5b - 3
Therefore, the volume of Y that would make the expression equivalent to 5b + 2 is 5b - 3.
