7 0

Y - (-5) = -7
---------------------------
Simplify
y + 5 = -7
-------------------------------------
Subtract 5 from each side
y + 5 - 5 = -7 - 5
y = -12
--------------------------------------------
y = -12 is your answer

So,
y+5=-7
subtract both sides by -5
y=-7-5
y=-12

What is the constant of proportionality of 3y = 27x

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3y = 27x

We want to find k when y = kx

Divide each side by 3

3y/3 = 27x/3

y = 9x

The constant of proportionality is 9

Pentagon jklmn is translated five units up. what is the name of the image after translation?

mrs_skeptik [129]

There will not be any specific name given to that image after translation

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Whatever may be the transformation, either it may be rotation, reflection or translation, the size or shape of the image will not change no matter what the condition is and hence the name of that image will also not change and remains constant.
Thus we can conclude that the name of the image will always tend to remain constant and not changes.

Determine all prime numbers a, b and c for which the expression a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 + c ^ 2 - 1 is a perfect square .

kogti [31]

Answer:

The family of all prime numbers such that $a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} -1$ is a perfect square is represented by the following solution:

$a$ is an arbitrary prime number. (1)

$b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c}$ (2)

$c$ is another arbitrary prime number. (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From Algebra we know that a second order polynomial is a perfect square if and only if $(x+y)^{2} = x^{2} + 2\cdot x\cdot y + y^{2}$ . From statement, we must fulfill the following identity:

$a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} - 1 = x^{2} + 2\cdot x\cdot y + y^{2}$

By Associative and Commutative properties, we can reorganize the expression as follows:

$a^{2} + (b^{2}-1) + c^{2} = x^{2} + 2\cdot x \cdot y + y^{2}$ (1)

Then, we have the following system of equations:

$x = a$ (2)

$(b^{2}-1) = 2\cdot x\cdot y$ (3)

$y = c$ (4)

By (2) and (4) in (3), we have the following expression:

$(b^{2} - 1) = 2\cdot a \cdot c$

$b^{2} = 1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c$

$b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a\cdot c}$

From Number Theory, we remember that a number is prime if and only if is divisible both by 1 and by itself. Then, $a, b, c > 1$ . If $a$ , $b$ and $c$ are prime numbers, then $2\cdot a\cdot c$ must be an even composite number, which means that $a$ and $c$ can be either both odd numbers or a even number and a odd number. In the family of prime numbers, the only even number is 2.
