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

Mathematics
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

Solve the system of equations.<br> 7x+10y=36<br> y=2x+9<br><br> x = ______<br><br> y = ______
wel

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the y in the 1st equation with the 2nd equation.

7x + 10(2x + 9) = 36

7x + 20x + 90 = 36

27x + 90 = 36

3x + 10 = 4

3x = -6

x = -2

So now we can find y.

y = 2x + 9 = 2(-2) + 9 = (-4) + 9 = 5.

So x = -2, y = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = number of years

let y = population

  • rate of increase = 7%

y = 500000 × 1.07^x

when x = 21:

y = 500000 × 1.07^(21) = 2070281.187... = 2,070,281
