Answer:

y = 5 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve the equation y + 6 = -3y + 26

y + 6 + 3y = -3y + 3y + 26 (addition of 3y on both the sides)

4y + 6 = 26

4y + 6 - 6 = 26 - 6 ( subtraction of 6 on both the sides)

4y = 20

$\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{20}{5}$ (division by 4 on both the sides)

y = 5

Therefore answer is y = 5.

y + 6 = -3y + 26
+ 3y + 3y
4y + 6 = 26
- 6 - 6
4y = 20

Greetings. As a beginner, I'm struggling a bit to learn calculus. May I know what is the derivative of x to the power 4 step by

If you're just starting calculus, perhaps you're asking about using the definition of the derivative to differentiate $x^4$ .

We have

$\dfrac{d}{dx} x^4 = \displaystyle \lim_{h\to0} \frac{(x+h)^4 - x^4}h$

Expand the numerator using the binomial theorem, then simplify and compute the limit.

$\dfrac{d}{dx} x^4 = \displaystyle \lim_{h\to0} \frac{(x^4+4hx^3 + 6h^2x^2 + 4h^3x + h^4) - x^4}h \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \lim_{h\to0} \frac{4hx^3 + 6h^2x^2 + 4h^3x + h^4}h \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \lim_{h\to0} (4x^3 + 6hx^2 + 4h^2x + h^3) = \boxed{4x^3}$

In general, the derivative of a power function $f(x) = x^n$ is $\frac{df}{dx} = nx^{n-1}$ . (This is the aptly-named "power rule" for differentiation.)
