Answer:

y = -1.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operations, and =

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, add 4y and subtract 14 from both sides:

1y (+4y) + 14 (-14) = -4y (+4y) + 9 (-14)

1y + 4y = 9 - 14

Combine like terms:

5y = -5

Isolate the variable, y. Divide 5 from both sides:

(5y)/5 = (-5)/5

y = -5/5

y = -1

y = -1 is your answer.

The length of the box is 2 1/2 m, it is 1 9/16 times its width. What is the height of the box if its volume is 12 3/4 m3?

Answer:

$3\frac{3}{16}$ meter

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write first what is known from the information.

Let's say, length is L, width is W, and height is H

1. The length of the box is 2 1/2 m = 2,5 m = 5/2 m, it is 1 9/16 = 25/16 times it's width (L). So we have the equation :

L ≡ $\frac{5}{2} = \frac{25}{16} W$

Then we find the W. From the fraction above, we found W equals to $\frac{8}{5} = 1,6$ meter

2. What is the height of the box, if its volume is 12 3/4 m^3 = 51/4 m^3

Formula of a volume is :

The area wide times the height

In this problem, the equation is :

L × W × H = Volume

Insert the numbers,

$\frac{5}{2}$ × $\frac{8}{5}$ × H = $\frac{51}{4}$

From the fraction above, we can find that H equals to

$3\frac{3}{16}$ meter

Shipping rates for Company A and Company B are shown in the tables below. Which company has shipping rates that you can represen

meriva

Company B; the ratios of cost to weight are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In the equation, $y=kx$ k is the constant of proportionality.

If the values are in accordance with $y=kx$ , the values of k will be constant for all the values.

So we determine the values of k for both the companies and see which has a constant k.

If $y=kx, k = \frac{y}{x}$ . In these tables, y is the total cost and x is the weight in lbs.

Step 2:

For company A,

when $y=10.55, x=1, k = \frac{10.55}{1} = 10.55,$

when $y=10.85, x=2, k = \frac{10.85}{2} = 5.425,$

when $y=11.15, x=3, k = \frac{11.15}{3} = 3.71666.$

For company B,

when $y=2.75, x=1, k = \frac2.75}{1} = 2.75,$

when $y=5.50, x=2, k = \frac{5.50}{2} = 2.75,$

when $y=8.25, x=3, k = \frac{8.25}{3} = 2.75.$

So company B has a constant value of $k=2.75$ .
