-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

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

gregori [183]
<span>Each ticket costs $10. He bought "x" tickets. Ticket cost = 10*x
Each bag of popcorn costs $5.
He bought "y" bags of popcorn.
Popcorn cost = 5*y Service fee: $3
Total cost = 10x + 5y + 3 <= $75 is the inequality.
10x + 5y <= 72
If x = 4,
then 40 + 5y <= 72
5y <= 32
y <= 6.4
So y = 6 bags of popcorn.</span>

The exponential function y= a(b)^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10). Which of the following is closest to the value o
Yuki888 [10]

If the exponential function y=ab^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

The given exponential equation is:

y=ab^x

The function passes through the points (3, 25) and (8, 10)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 25 into the function y=ab^x

25=ab^3............................(1)

Substitute x = 8 and y = 10 into the function y=ab^x

10=ab^8.............................(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

\frac{10}{25}=\frac{ab^8}{ab^3}  \\\\0.4=b^5\\\\b=0.4^\frac{1}{5} \\\\b=0.4^{0.2}\\\\b=0.833

Therefore, if the exponential function y=ab^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833
