When they ask you to solve for y, they just want you to isolate it on one side of the equal sign (like how it is in a slope-intercept form equation). So to start:

2x + 3y = 12

3y = -2x + 12     <em>Subtract 2x from both sides to move it to the right.</em>

y = \frac{-2}{3} + 4     <em>Divide both sides by 3 to completely isolate the y value.</em>

Notice how y = \frac{-2}{3} + 4 is a slope-intercept form equation and is solved for y.

Therefore, the equation would be y = \frac{-2}{3} + 4.

<em>Hope this helps! :)</em>

Answer:

t=19188.2 y

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay equation is:

A=A_{0}e^{-0.00012t}      (1)

But, A is 10% of A₀, it means that A=0.10A₀.

If we put it into equation (1), we will have:

0.10A_{0}=A_{0}e^{-0.00012t}      

0.10=e^{-0.00012t}         (2)

Now, we just need to solve (2) for t.

t=\frac{ln(0.10)}{-0.000121} = 19188.2 y      

I hope it helps you!

Find the points having x-coordinate of 9 whose distance from the point (3,-2) is 10.
kotegsom [21]

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{9}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{y})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ \stackrel{d}{10}=\sqrt{[9-3]^2+[y-(-2)^2]}\implies 10=\sqrt{(9-3)^2+(y+2)^2} \\\\\\ 10=\sqrt{6^2+\stackrel{FOIL}{(y^2+4y+4)}}\implies 10^2=36+(y^2+4y+4)


\bf 100=y^2+4y+40\implies 0=y^2+4y-60 \\\\\\ 0=(y+10)(y-6)\implies y= \begin{cases} -10\\ 6 \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill (9,-10)\qquad (9,6)~\hfill

\bf \textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\ V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ V=\frac{32\pi }{81} \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{32\pi }{81}=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}\implies \cfrac{96\pi }{81}=4\pi r^3 \\\\\\ \cfrac{96\pi }{324\pi }=r^3\implies \cfrac{8}{27}=r^3\implies \sqrt[3]{\cfrac{8}{27}}=r\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[3]{8}}{\sqrt[3]{27}}=r\implies \cfrac{2}{3}=r
