Answer:
y=2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
2y-6=-1
add 6 to negative 1 so that the 2y is all by itself
2y=5
divide 5 by 2
y=2.5
Answer:
c. a: 4
b: 12
c: 9
4x² +12x+9=0
(2x+3)(2x+3)= 0
(2x+3)²=0 {square root both sides}
2x+3=0
2x=-3
x= -3/2
Answer:
a = (p - 3b)/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).
p = 10a + 3b
First, subtract 3b from both sides.
p (-3b) = 10a + 3b (-3b)
p - 3b = 10a
Next, isolate the a. Divide 10 from both sides.
(p - 3b)/10 = (10a)/10
(p - 3b)/10 = a
a = (p - 3b)/10 is your answer.

Y-3=1/2(x+2)
To find the y-intercept, we must first get the equation in slope intercept form. Start off by distributing 1/2 into the parentheses.
y-3= 1/2x+1
Add 3 to both sides
y= 1/2x+4
The slope is whatever is in front of x, in this case, 1/2. The y-intercept is the number after that which would be 4
2/3 x 3/4 =6/12=1/2
