Solve x-5y=17 for y?

Mathematics
1 answer:
damaskus [11]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Y = 12.

Explanation: Because 17- 5 is 12 and  when you are doing problems like that, you are supposed to subtract the number behing the equal sign with the number in front of the equal sign. So, that would be 17- 5. And that gives you 12. So, Y=12.

Find the x and y intercepts<br> c) x + 3y - 12=0
mojhsa [17]
To get x intercept:
let y=0,x➖12=0,x=12
so x intercept point (12,0)
To get y intercept:
let x=0,3y➖12=0,y=4
so y intercept point (0,4)

a newborn boa constrictor measure 18 inches long. An adult boa constrictor measures 9 times the lenght of the newborn plus 2 inc
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Newborn = 18 inches
adult boa = 9 * 18 + 2 = 164 inches

Since all the information is given, then merely put the necessary facts in order. 

Had the length of the newborn been unknown, it would have been represented by x.

9x + 2 = 164
9x = 164 - 2
9x = 162
9x/9 = 162/9
x = 18

How does the value of log Subscript 2 Baseline 100 compare with the value of Log Subscript 6 Baseline 20?.
attashe74 [19]

You can use the change of base formula to get

\log_2(100) = \frac{\log(100)}{\log(2)} \approx 6.643856

and also

\log_6(20) = \frac{\log(20)}{\log(6)} \approx 1.671950

In general, the change of base formula is

\log_b(x) = \frac{\log(x)}{\log(b)}

(x - 2)(x² + 2x + 4) = 0​
Ber [7]

We have to find the value of x from the given equation.

  • (x - 2)(x² - 2x + 2) = 0 is a quadratic equation, so it will have two values.

Step: Write the equation in simplest form.

  • (x - 2)(x² - 2x + 1) = 0

Step: Solve the problem by spiltting method.

  • (x-2)(x² - x -x + 1) = 0
  • (x - 2)(x²-x - x + 1) = 0
  • (x - 2) [x(x - 1) -1(x -1)]
  • (x - 2)[(x-1)(x-1)]

Step: Solve the problem with using algebraic formula.

{x-1](x-1)

Step : We have used a²-b² to solve the problem.

(x-2)(x² - x -x + 1) = 0

(x - 2)(x²-x - x + 1) = 0

(x - 2) [x(x - 1) -1(x -1)]

(x - 2)[(x-1)(x-1)]

Therefore, the possible factorization is (x - 2)[(x-1)(x-1)].
