Solve 2y - 5 over 3 = 4y - 1 over 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
ololo11 [35]3 years ago
4 0
\frac{2y - 5}{3} = \frac{4y - 1}{2}
3(4y - 1) = 2(2y - 5)
3(4y) - 3(1) = 2(2y) - 2(5)
12y - 3 = 4y - 10
8y - 3 = -10
8y = -7
\frac{8y}{8} = \frac{-7}{8}
y = -0.875

The price of a flight was increased by 3% to £650. What was the price before the increase?
Masja [62]
The answer is 630.5. What you’d need to do to solve the problem is multiply 3% (0.03) by 650 and you’d end up getting 19.5. Subtract the number you got (19.5) from 650, and you’ll end up with your answer.

1) Nyla had 10 songs in a playlist on her phone. The playlist had two of her favorite artists, Beyonce
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

a) 10 = X + Y

b) X = 1, Y = 9

X = 2, Y = 8

X = 3, Y = 7

X = 4, Y = 6

X = 5, Y = 5

i) The inputted values of X and Y are the solutions of the equation because they sum up to the 10 songs on Nyla's playlist.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of songs in the playlist on her phone = 10

The number of authors of the songs on her playlist = 2

The equation that represent the situation is given as follows;

X + Y = 10

Where X represent the number of Beyonce's song on her playlist and Y represent the number of Jennifer Lopez's song on her playlist

b) 5 possible solutions are;

X = 1, Y = 9

X + Y = 1 + 9 = 10

Which gives 1 Beyonce's and 9 Jennifer Lopez's songs

X = 2, Y = 8

X + Y = 2 + 8 = 10

Which gives 2 Beyonce's and 8 Jennifer Lopez's songs

X = 3, Y = 7

X + Y = 3 + 7 = 10

Which gives 3 Beyonce's and 7 Jennifer Lopez's songs

X = 4, Y = 6

X + Y = 4 + 6 = 10

Which gives 4 Beyonce's and 6 Jennifer Lopez's songs

X = 5, Y = 5

X + Y = 5 + 5 = 10

Which gives 5 Beyonce's and 5 Jennifer Lopez's songs

i) The inputted values of X and Y are the solutions of the equation because they sum up to the 10 songs on Nyla's playlist.
