Answer:

y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers,  

x

,

y

. We know two things about them:

2

x

+

y

=

25

3

x

−

y

=

20

Let's add these two equations together which will cancel the  

y

:

5

x

+

0

y

=

45

x

=

45

5

=

9

We can now substitute in the  

x

value into one of the original equations (I'll do both) to get to  

y

:

2

x

+

y

=

25

2

(

9

)

+

y

=

25

18

+

y

=

25

y

=

7

3

x

−

y

=

20

3

(

9

)

−

y

=

20

27

−

y

=

20

D=a+b+c solve for b<br> I need some help
Hoochie [10]

Hi Walker


d=a+b+c

Flip

a+b+c=d

Add -a to both sides

a+b+c-a=d-a

b+c=-a+d

Now add -c to both sides

b+c-c=-a+d-c

b= -a-c+d


I hope that's help:0

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Reflection across the y-axis replaces each x coordinate with its opposite.

B. Rotation 90° CW does the transformation (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)

C. This is a translation left 2 units.

D. Rotation 90° CCW does the transformation (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

E. This is a translation left 7 and down 2.

__

In the attached graphs, we have identified a point that is a corresponding point on each figure. This is so you can see how the various transformations move it and the rest of the figure in relation to it. 90° arcs are shown so you can see the rotations more easily.

The figures are labeled and color coded in accordance with the problem statement.

4/y+2 - 9/y-2 = 9/y^2-4
Evgesh-ka [11]
Going off the idea that this is 4/(y+2) - 9/(y-2) = 9/(y^2-4), let's first rewrite y^2-4 in the form of a^2-b^2, where a=y and b=2.
y/(y+2)-9/(y-2)=9/(y^2-2^2)
Now, use difference of squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
4/(y+2)-9/(y-2)=9/((y+2)(y-2))
Multiply both sides by the Least Common Denominator: (y+2)(y-2)
4(y-2)-9(y+2)=9
Then keep on simplifying until you get your answer
-5y-26=9
-5y=9+26
-5y=35
y=35/-5
y=-7
Yay! Our answer is y=-7!
