Answer: y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is y.

According to the question,

Step 1 . subtracts three from the number (y-3), then doubles it

i.e. Final number = 2(y-3)

Step 2 .  subtracts three again i.e. (2(y-3)-3), and doubles the number again

i.e. Final result  = 2(2(y-3)-3)

If the result is his original number y, then

2(2(y-3)-3) =y

⇒ 2(2y-6-3)=y   [ using distributive property]

⇒ 2(2y-9)=y

⇒ 2(2y)-2(9)=y [ using distributive property]

⇒ 4y -18=y

⇒ 4y -y= 18 

⇒ 3y= 18

⇒ y= 6    [Divide both sides by 3]

Hence,  y=6

Kendra gets a paycheck of $300 after 5 days of work. At this rate, how much does she get paid for working 24 days?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

$1440

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the unit rate by dividing 300 by 5, which equals 60. So, Kendra earns $60 in one day. Then, multiply 60 by 24, which equals 1440. So, Kendra makes $1440 in 24 days. Hope this helped!

Someone Please Help!!! <br> Find the radian measure of an angle of -280 degrees
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<span>Answer: -4.88691778Solution:1.Write down the number of degrees you want to convert to radians   Given Degree = -280° The formula to convert degrees to radian measure is:Radian =  degree x π/180 2. Multiply the number of degrees by π/180. Think of it like multiplying two fractions: the first fraction has the number of degrees in the numerator and "1" in the denominator, and the second fraction has π in the numerator and 180 in the denominator. -280 x π/180 = -280π/1803. Find the largest number that can evenly divide into the numerator and denominator of each fraction and use it to simplify each fraction. The largest number for 280 is 20.-280 x π/180 = -280π/180 ÷ 20/20 = -14π /9 4. Then multiply the numerator by 3.14159 because pi or π  is equivalent to 3.14159, -14x 3.14159= -43.982265. To get the radian measure, we will divide -43.98226 by 9. -43.98226/9= -4.88691778

Anyone know how to work this out?

The first and crucial thing we want to take notice is that the lines DF and EG intersect at point H which creates 4 different triangles in the rhombus. The innermost angles of DGH and EFH are vertical angles and vertical angles are congruent. So if the angles of the triangles are congruent than the triangles themselves are congruent. This is supported by the vertical angles theorem.
