2-(y + 2) = 3y Solve for y

1 answer:

alexgriva [62]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Reorder the terms:

2 + -1(2 + y) = 3y

2 + (2 * -1 + y * -1) = 3y

2 + (-2 + -1y) = 3y

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + -1y = 3y

-1y = 3y

Solving

-1y = 3y

Add '-3y' to each side of the equation.

-1y + -3y = 3y + -3y

Combine like terms: -1y + -3y = -4y

-4y = 3y + -3y

Combine like terms: 3y + -3y = 0

-4y = 0

Divide each side by '-4'.

y = 0

hope this helps

rectangle ABCD is graphed in the cordinate plane. The following are the verticies of the rectangle; A(-6,-4),B(-4,-4),C(-4,-2),

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Therefore Perimeter of Rectangle ABCD is 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

ABCD is a Rectangle.

A(-6,-4),

B(-4,-4),

C(-4,-2), and

D (-6,-2).

To Find :

Perimeter of Rectangle = ?

Solution:

Perimeter of Rectangle is given as

$\textrm{Perimeter of Rectangle}=2(Length+Width)$

Length = AB

Width = BC

Now By Distance Formula we have'

$l(AB) = \sqrt{((x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2} )}$

Substituting the values we get

$l(AB) = \sqrt{((-4-(-6))^{2}+(-4-(-4))^{2} )}$

$l(AB) = \sqrt{((2)^{2}+(0)^{2} )}=2\ unit$

Similarly

$l(BC) = \sqrt{((-4-(-4))^{2}+(-2-(-4))^{2} )}$

$l(BC) = \sqrt{((0)^{2}+(2)^{2} )}=2\ unit$

Therefore now

Length = AB = 2 unit

Width = BC = 2 unit

Substituting the values in Perimeter we get

$\textrm{Perimeter of Rectangle}=2(2+2)=2(4)=8\ unit$

Therefore Perimeter of Rectangle ABCD is 4 units

Olly drove 56 km from Liverpool to Manchester.

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

57.073 km/h approx.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance from Liverpool to Sheffield

= 56 + 61 km

= 117 km

Time from Liverpool to Manchester

=56 km ÷ 70 km/h

=0.8 hours

Time from Manchester to Sheffield

=75 mins

=1.25 hours

Total time = 0.8 h + 1.25 h

= 2.05 hours

Average speed from Liverpool to Sheffield

= 117 ÷ 2.05

= 57.073 km /h

The Schuller family has five members. Dad is 6ft 2in tall. Mom is 3 inches shorter than Dad, but 2 inches taller than Ivan. Marc

ohaa [14]

Answer:

62 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the height ( in inches ) of Ivan,

∵ Marcia is 5 inches shorter than Ivan,

height of Marcia = x - 5,

Marcia is twice as tall as Sally-Jo,

height of sally-jo = $\frac{x-5}{2}$

Mom is 2 inches taller than Ivan.

⇒ height of mom = x + 2,

Mom is 3 inches shorter than Dad,

height of dad = x + 2 + 3 = x + 5,

So, mean height of family is,

$\frac{x+x-5+\frac{x-5}{2}+x+2+x+5}{5}$

$=\frac{2x+2x-10+x-5+2x+4+2x+10}{10}$

$=\frac{9x-1}{10}$

According to the question,

x + 5 = 74 ( 1 ft = 12 in )

x = 69

Hence, mean height of the family = $\frac{9\times 69-1}{10}$

$=\frac{620}{10}$

= 62 inches
