Which properties can be used to solve 7y − 15 = −29? Select all that apply.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

addition property of equality

inverse property of multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

7y − 15 = −29

Add 15 to each side using the addition property of equality

7y -15+15 = -29+15

7y = -14

Divide each side by 7 using the inverse property of multiplication

7y/7 = -14/7

y =2

Solve the equation by completing the square x^2-3x-18=0
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

x = -3, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add 18 to both sides

x² - 3x - 18 = 0

           + 18    + 18

x² - 3x = 18

Add 9/4 to both sides because that is the square of half of -3

x² - 3x + 9/4 = 18 + 9/4

Multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the fractions

(x² - 3x + 9/4 = 18 + 9/4)4

4x² - 12x + 9 = 72 + 9 = 81

Factor the left side of the equation

(2x - 3)² = 81

√(2x - 3)² = √81

Because of the square root, this will result in a positive number and a negative number

2x - 3 = 9

2x - 3 = -9

For both equations, add 3 to both sides then divide by 2

2x - 3 = 9

     + 3   +3

2x = 12

2x/2 = 12/2

x = 6

2x - 3 = -9

    + 3   + 3

2x = -6

x = -3

At a pumpkin patch, if Armando guesses the weight of his pumpkin within 0.3 pounds, he gets to take the pumpkin home for free. I
Reil [10]

Answer: last option

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the weight of his pumpkin 4.9 pounds and that, if he guesses its weight within 0.3 pounds, he will get the pumpkin for free.

Then, to find the minimum weight he can guess  in order to get his pumpkin for free, it's necessary to write the expression:

x-0.3=4.9

Rewriting it:

x-4.9=0.3

To find the maximum weight he can guess  in order to get his pumpkin for free, it's necessary to write the expression:

x+0.3=4.9

Rewriting it:

x-4.9=-0.3
