First, note that y≠0 and y≠4 because that would make the denomenators 0 which is undefined

 
we got to get rid of fractions
common denomenator is y(y-4)
multiply both sides by y(y-4)
2y+y-4=y(y-1)
3y-4=y²-y
minus 3y both sides
-4=y²-4y
add 4 both sides
0=y²-4y+4
factor
what 2 numbers multiply to get 4 and add to get -4?
-2 and -2
0=(y-2)(y-2)
set to zero

y-2=0
y=2
no extranious roots


y=2 is the solution

Multiply the numerators by "y" which yields:
(2y) / (y-4)  +1 = (y^2 -y) / (y-4)
(2y) / (y-4)  - (y^2 -y) / (y-4) = -1

(2y) - (y^2 -y) / (y-4) = -1

(2y) - (y^2 -y) = -y +1

-y^2 +2y -y +y = 1

-y^2 +2y -1 = 0

Multiplying by -1

y^2 -2y +1 = 0

(y -1) * (y - 1) = 0

x = 1
x= 1

Arada [10]

Answer:

-1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between S and T is

4 - -7

4+7 = 11

Divide this in half to find the midpoint

The number of carbon atoms in a fossil is given by the function y= 5100(0.95)^x where x represents the number of years since bei
natita [175]

Answer:

This is a guess!

When looking at the given equation I can not help but think of compound interest. So I am going to convert this into that format.

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Within the context of financial interest:

Looking for:

P

(

1

−

x

)

n

Where P is the principle sum,

x

is the interest and n is the number of interest cycles (annual)

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Given:

y

=

5100

(

0.95

)

x

But

0.95

=

1

−

0.05

so we have

y

=

5100

(

1

−

0.05

)

x

But

.

0.05

=

5

100

So we have

y

=

5100

(

1

−

5

100

)

x

Thus the percentage change each year is

−

5

%
