Solving the equation -3(y - 5) = 24

-3(y-5)=24
First follow the distributive property and do the parentheses. 
-3 times y gives you:-3y 
-3 times -5 gives you 15 since a negative times a negative is a positve. 
So now you have -3y +15 = 24
subtract 15 from both sides and you will get: -3y+15-15=24-15
which then gives you: -3y= 9
to get y by itself divide both sides by -3. 
this gives you: y= -3

-3y+15=24
      -15=-15
-3y=      9
-3      =    -3
y=-3

How to express -8+4-2+1 in sigma notation
dlinn [17]
It's pretty clear what the pattern is - 2^(k-1) * (-1)^(k-1) would work backwards, but we have to work forwards to get lower in this case, so we could start at -3 (as long as we put the k-1 in absolute value to make sure it's not 1/8), so we could write it as ∑ (k=1, goes to 4) 2^(|k-4|)*(-1)^(k-4) 

It doesn't matter for k-4 because 1/-1 and 1/1 are the same thing as -1 and 1 respectively

Cos (90 - x) = -0.2. What is sin(x)?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

-0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine and cosine are co-functions.

That means, cos(90-x)=sin(x) or sin(90-x)=cos(x).

So here since cos(90-x)=-0.2, then sin(x)=-0.2.
