What is y in " -9/2y = 27/2 " ?

To find out what y equals, get y alone on one side. To do this, first, multiply each side by 2. This will get rid of the fractions on both sides.

2(-9/2y)=2(27/2)
-9y=27

Finally, divide each side by -9 to get y alone

-9y=27
----- -----
-9 -9

y=-3

$-\frac{9}{2}y=\frac{27}{2}$
⇒ $-9y=27$
⇒ $y=-3$

A building company employs 3 labourers 12 joiners 8 electrician 4 plumbers. For a job, the company needs one of each type of wor

Novay_Z [31]

The number of ways that the company can choose four workers is 40920 ways.

<h3>How to calculate the number?</h3>

From the information, the building company employs 3 laborers 12 joiners 8 electrician 4 plumbers. The total number of workers will be:

= 3 + 12 + 8 + 4

= 27 workers

It should be noted that combination will be used to choose the 4 workers. This is illustrated as

Combination formula

ⁿCr = n! / ((n – r)! r!)

n = the number of items.

r = how many items are taken at a time.

where n = 33

r = 4

ⁿCr = n! / ((n – r)! r!)

³³C₄ = 33! / (33 - 4)! 4!

= 33! / 29! 4!

= 33 × 32 × 31 × 30 / 4 × 3 × 2

= 40920 ways

What is the value of a in the equation 5 a minus 10 b equals 45, when b equals 3?

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

5a - 10b = 45

5a - (10×3) = 45

5a - 30 = 45

5a = 45 + 30

5a = 75

a = 15

Solve the right triangle given that mZA= 30°, mZC = 90°, anda = 15. Round your result to one decimal place.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$\angle B = 60^o$

$b =17.3$

$c = 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a= 15$

$\angle A = 30^o$

$\angle C = 90^o$

<em>See attachment for illustration</em>

Required

Solve the triangle

First, we calculate the measure of B

$\angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^o$ --- angles in a triangle

$30^o + \angle B + 90^o = 180^o$

Collect like terms

$\angle B = 180^o-90^o-30^o$

$\angle B = 60^o$

Solve for (c) using sine function

$\sin(30) = \frac{a}{c}$

Make c the subject

$c = \frac{a}{\sin(30)}$

Substitute known values

$c = \frac{10}{0.5}$

$c = 20$

Solve for (b) using Pythagoras

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2$

This gives:

$20^2 = 10^2 + b^2$

$400 = 100 + b^2$

Collect like terms

$b^2 =400 - 100$

$b^2 =300$

Take square roots

$b =17.3$

(7h + 7) + (7h + 8)<br><br> ........

galben [10]

Answer:

14h+15

Step-by-step explanation:

(7h + 7) + (7h + 8)

First simplify

Eliminate redundant parentheses

(7h+7)

7h+7+7h+8

Add the numbers

7h+(7)+7h+(8) . 7+8=15

7h+15+7h

Combine like terms

(7h)+15+(7h) (7h)+(7h)=14h

14h+15

The answer would be 14h+15
