Solve for y. -15y – -14y = -9

Mathematics
1 answer:
Black_prince [1.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

-15 - -14y = -9

two negatives (close together) makes a positive

-15y + 14y = -9

add like terms

-1y = -9

get y alone (divide whats in front of it) and do the same on the other side

-1y/-1 = -9/-1

if you divide two negatives it makes it positive so youll get 9

Hey everyone i need your help again what's 3(11x + 5) = 279
VikaD [51]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use PEMDAS to solve algebraic equations:

Parentheses

Exponents

Multiplication/Division

Addition/Subtraction

First, we have parentheses in this equation, so distribute

3(11x) + 3(5) = 279

Next, because there are no exponents, multiply

33x + 15 = 279

To isolate x, subtract 15 from both sides

33x + 15 - 15 = 279 - 15

33x = 264

Then divide both sides by 33

x = 8

Bill measures the circumference of a circular fish pond to be 28 ft. What is the diameter of the fish pond, rounded to the neare
zalisa [80]
It would be 9 ft. using the knowledge of \pi times the diameter (\pi equals aprox. 3.14) equal the circumference of a circle, and since we know the circumference, we need to divide that by \pi to get the diameter.

equation:  28/3.14=8.913 
                 rounding that would bring it to 9 ft.

Solve the system of equations below using a matrix equation.
andreev551 [17]

Answer is b. ( -1, -5)


Answer is b. (-1, -5)

Step by step

Substitute the x and y values into both equations to find equality

 Answer b. Makes both equations equal

2x + y = -7

2(-1) + (-5) = -7

-2 -5 = -7

-7 = -7
it equals now let’s do the 2nd one

x - y = 4

-1 -(-5) = 4

4 = 4

This one equals too. I did the math on the other three answers and they did not equal.
