Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

9(y−4)−7y=5(3y−2)

(9)(y)+(9)(−4)+−7y=(5)(3y)+(5)(−2)

9y+−36+−7y=15y+−10

(9y+−7y)+(−36)=15y−10

2y+−36=15y−10

2y−36=15y−10

Step 2:

2y−36−15y=15y−10−15y

−13y−36=−10

Step 3:

−13y−36+36=−10+36

−13y=26

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

9(y + -4) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

Reorder the terms:

9(-4 + y) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

(-4 * 9 + y * 9) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

(-36 + 9y) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

Combine like terms: 9y + -7y = 2y

-36 + 2y = 5(3y + -2)

Reorder the terms:

-36 + 2y = 5(-2 + 3y)

-36 + 2y = (-2 * 5 + 3y * 5)

-36 + 2y = (-10 + 15y)

Solving

-36 + 2y = -10 + 15y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15y' to each side of the equation.

-36 + 2y + -15y = -10 + 15y + -15y

Combine like terms: 2y + -15y = -13y

-36 + -13y = -10 + 15y + -15y

Combine like terms: 15y + -15y = 0

-36 + -13y = -10 + 0

-36 + -13y = -10

Add '36' to each side of the equation.

-36 + 36 + -13y = -10 + 36

Combine like terms: -36 + 36 = 0

0 + -13y = -10 + 36

-13y = -10 + 36

Combine like terms: -10 + 36 = 26

-13y = 26

Divide each side by '-13'.

y = -2

Simplifying

y = -2

7x^2=9+x what are the values of x Will give medal and points

DENIUS [597]

7x² = 9 + x Subtract x from both sides
7x² - x = 9 Subtract 9 from both sides
7x² - x - 9 = 0 Use the Quadratic Formula

a = 7 , b = -1 , c = -9

x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in the a, b, and c values
x = $\frac{- (-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Cancel out the double negative
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Square -1
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Multiply 7 and -9
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 - 4(-63} }{2(7)}$ Multiply -4 and -63
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 252} }{2(7)}$ Multiply 2 and 7
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 252} }{14}$ Add 1 and 252
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{253} }{14}$ Split up the $\pm$
x = $\left \{ {{ \frac{1 + \sqrt{253} }{14} } \atop { \frac{1 - \sqrt{253} }{14} }} \right.$
The approximate square root of 253 is 15.905973.
x ≈ $\left \{ { \frac{1 + 15.905973}{14} } \atop { \frac{1 - 15.905973}{14} }} \right$ Add and subtract
x ≈ $\left \{ {{ \frac{16.905973}{14} } \atop { \frac{14.905973}{14} }} \right.$ Divide
x ≈ $\left \{ {{1.2075} \atop {1.0647}} \right.$ Round to the nearest hundredth
x ≈ $\left \{ {{1.21} \atop {1.06}} \right.$

What is the first term in a geometric sequence if the common ratio is − 2 and the sum of the first six terms is −105?

Serggg [28]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence}
\\\\
S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
r=-2\\
n=6\\
S_6=-105
\end{cases}$

$\bf -105=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-(-2)^6}{1-(-2)} \right)\implies -105=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-(64)}{1+2} \right)
\\\\\\
-105=a_1\left( \cfrac{-63}{3} \right)\implies -105=a_1(-21)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-105}{-21}=a_1\implies 5=a_1$
