Answer:

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

2(y + 2) - y = 3(y - 1) + 9

Step 2: Solve for <em>y</em>

  1. <u>Distribute:</u> 2y + 4 - y = 3y - 3 + 9
  2. <u>Combine like terms:</u> y + 4 = 3y + 6
  3. <u>Subtract y on both sides:</u> 4 = 2y + 6
  4. <u>Subtract 6 on both sides:</u> -2 = 2y
  5. <u>Divide both sides by 2:</u> -1 = y
  6. <u>Rewrite:</u> y = -1

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in y to verify it's a solution.</em>

2(-1 + 2) - (-1) = 3(-1 - 1) + 9

2(1) + 1 = 3(-2) + 9

2 + 1 = -6 + 9

3 = 3

Lowest common multiple of 12, 18,56
joja [24]

Answer: The lowest common multiple of 12, 18, and 56 would be 504. Why? Well, see below for an explanation!

Step-by-step explanation: What is the lcm? Well, the lcm of two or more numbers is the lowest possible number that each number has in common as a multiple. Because we are dealing with large numbers, we can tell that the lcm will be a multiple of these numbers times at least 5. I multiplied all the numbers by 10, and it was too large and did not work. However, I backed up and tried 9.

56 x 9 = 504.


Why is this acceptable? Well, this is acceptable because I found that 504 can be divided by 12 and 18 both to get a whole number.

504 divided by 18 equals 28.

504 divided by 12 equals 42.


Using this principle, we will find that 504 is the lowest number that 12, 18, and 56 have in common.

Your final answer: 504 is the lowest common denominator. If you need extra help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.

Scilla [17]

Answer:

  • s > 9 29/55

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul ran a 26 1/5 mile marathon in 2 3/4 hours

<u>Paul's average speed was:</u>

  • distance/time =
  • 26 1/5 : 2 3/4 =
  • 131/5 : 11/4 =
  • 131/5 * 4/11 =
  • 524/55 =
  • 9 29/55 mph

<u>Inequality for the speed of faster runners:</u>

  • s > 9 29/55

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that is parallel given the equation and point.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

y = \frac{4x}{5}+\frac{42}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for two lines to be parallel, they must have the same slope. So, we know that the slope of the other line is 4/5.

We're given an ordered pair, so we can solve for b in the (slope-intercept form) equation y = mx + b

2 = \frac{4}{5}(-8) + b\\2 = \frac{-32}{5}+b\\b = 2 + \frac{32}{5}\\  b = \frac{42}{5}

y = \frac{4x}{5}+\frac{42}{5}
