Your goal is to isolate y

To begin isolating y, perform the opposite operation by subtracting 15 on both sides of the equation

4y = -5y - 6

Perform the opposite operation by adding 5y on both sides of the equation

9y = -6

Perform the opposite operation by dividing both sides of the equation by 9

y=y= -\frac{1}{3}

First off, you need to have your ys on the same side. Here's how to do it:
4y + 15 = -5y + 9
4y + 5y = 9 - 15 (once a number goes to the other side, it changes its sign)
9y = -6
y = -6/9
y = -2/3

The correct answer is B. -2/3

Think of it as two rectangular prisms next to each other, and find the volume of each one separately.

The big one on the left has a volume of 4 * 12 * 6, or 288.

The smaller one on the right has a volume of 2 * 6 * 6, or 72.

288 + 72 = 360. 360 cubic feet of water are needed.

A plumber charges a flat fee of $76 to visit a home and examine a clogged drain. The plumber charges an additional $24 per hour
prisoha [69]

Answer:

(a) 12 hours

(b) $220

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) First we plug in $364 for C

C=76+24h

364=76+24h

Subtract 76 from both sides

24h=288

Divide both sides by 24

h=12

She spent 12 hours fixing the drain

(b) First we plug 6 hours in for h

C=76+24(6)

Multiply it out

C=76+144

Add

C=220

It costs $220 for fixing a drain that takes 6 hours

What is the length of AC?
Elan Coil [88]

well, the triangle is an isosceles, so it twin sides, and the twin sides make twin angles, as we see by the tickmarks on A and C, meaning AB = BC.

\bf x+4=3x-8\implies 4=2x-8\implies 12=2x\implies \cfrac{12}{2}=x\implies 6=x \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ AC\implies x+4\implies 6+4\implies 10
