Our goal with this equation is to solve for y by simplifying the equation.

4y + 5 = -31
Our first step is to always get 4y by itself.
To do so, we need to subtract 5. However, when you perform any order of operations (except for distribution) you need to do it to both sides.

So, let's subtract 5 from both sides.
5 - 5 = 0
-31 -5 = -36

We're now left with:
4y = -36.

Now we must simplify for y- divide both sides by 4.
4y / 4 = y
-36 / 4 = -9 (When you divide a negative by a positive, you will result with a negative)

We are now left with:
y = -9.
This is your solution.

I hope this helps!

What additional information would prove that LMNP is a rectangle? The length of LM is and the length of MN is . The slope of LP
kumpel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is diagonals are equal and bisect each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposites sides equal in length and all interior angles equal to 90°. Opposite sides are parallel and adjacent sides are perpendicular. Diagonals in a rectangle are equal in length and they bisect each other. If we want to draw a circumcircle, then the point of intersection of these diagonals give the circumcenter.

What is the surface area of the prism in square inches?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

176

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply the length by the width to know the area or a square/rectangle (2D), so you multiply length by width by height to know the volume of a prism (3D). so 11*2"8=176

Which theorem proves that the triangles are congruent?
ddd [48]
Hello!

Looking at the image above, we are given that side BE is congruent to side ED while side AE is congruent to side EC. This can be written as follows:

BE = ED
AE = EC

In this case, ∠1 and ∠2 can be classified as vertical angles. Vertical angles are the two angles on opposite sides of two intersecting lines. These angles are always congruent to one another. Consequently, ∠1 and ∠2 must also be congruent to one another. This can be written as follows:

∠1 = ∠2

We have now proven the congruency of two sides and one angle. Because the angle lies between the two sides, this implies the use of SAS (side-angle-side).

Therfore, the correct answer is B.

I hope this helps!

A shoreline observation post is located on a cliff such that the observer is 280 feet above sea level. The observer spots a ship
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) D/280 = tan(90 - 6)

   D = 280tan84 = 2,664 ft

b) D/280 = tan(90 - 16)

   D = 280tan74 = 976 ft

ship speed = (2664 - 976) / 43 = 39.2 ft/s
