Please help!!!!!Solve the equation 5(2y - 1) - 2(3y)= 1​

Mathematics
1 answer:
-Dominant- [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

y = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5(2y - 1) - 2(3y) = 1

First we use distributive property:

10y - 5 - 6y = 1

because 5 × 2y = 10y

and -2 × 3y = -6y

Now we combine the like terms:

4y -5 = 1

because 10y - 6y = 4y

Now we have to send the -5 to the other side. (when we send it to the other side it becomes positive because right now it is negative)

4y = 1 + 5

Again we combine the like terms:

4y = 6

(because 5 + 1 = 6)

Now we have to send the 4 to the other side because we need to get the y value. (when we send it to the other sidr it will be divided)

y = 6/4

and we simplify:

y = 3/2

And we cannot simplify or do anything else. So that is the answer.

Hope that helped!

Carlos has 24 balls of different colors: yellow, red, green, and blue. 17 balls are not red,10 balls are neither yellow nor blue
olga55 [171]

Answer:

10 green

Step-by-step explanation:

24 total balls. 17 Not red, so 24-17=7. 7 Red balls. That leaves 17 balls. 10 of them are neither yellow nor blue, and since the amount of red balls has been figured out, we do not need to account for them. 17 balls - 10 not yellow or blue equals 7 balls that can be yellow or blue. 17 balls left, minus the 7 yellow or blue balls equals 10.

Solve ( x - 2)( x + 7) =0
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

x = 2 or

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 2)(x + 7) = 0

x - 2 = 0

Add 2 to both sides

x - 2 + 2 = 2 + 0

x = 2

OR

x + 7 = 0

Subtract 7 from both sides

x + 7 - 7 = 0-7

x = -7

Therefore

x = 2 or

x = -7

Tony flips a coin and gets heads. He tells his friend that he can get heads two more times in a row .what is the probability tha
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The probability is 1/8 or 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the probability that when a coin is flipped there would be a show of heads three times.

In flipping of a coin, there are only two possible results with equal probability. The probability of both events i.e P(H) and P(T) is equal and that is 1/2

Thus the probability of getting heads three times in a row will be P(HHH) meaning P(H) and another P(H) and another P(H)

When we have and in a probability question, that means we are to multiply the probabilities together.

Hence, P(HHH) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

Explain your answer !! <br> Have a nice day <br><br> Will give braisnlt
Viktor [21]

Answer:

(3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to solve this by substitution

We first need to get a variable by itself in one of the two equations (it doesn't matter which variable and the equation you do the work on doesn't matter either)

I'm going to solve for y in the second equation

-4x-4y=4

add 4y and subtract 4 from both sides to get

-4x-4=4y

Divide by 4 to get

-x-1=y

We can plug this value in for y into the first equation and get

4x+5(-x-1)= -8

Solve for x

4x-5x-5= -8

-x-5= -8

-x= -3

x=3

We can plug this value into one of the first two equations and solve for y

4(3)+5y= -8

12+5y= -8

5y= -20

y= -4

Therefore the solution is (3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
