-7+ 5Y = -37 simplify your answer as much as possible

Mathematics

irinina [24]3 years ago

Answer:

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this equation as much as possible, we have to get the variable y by itself.

To do this, we would do the inverse operation of subtraction and add 7 to the left and right side of the equation.

-7 + 7 + 5y = -37 + 7

The 7s cancel out on the left side because -7+7 = 0 and so we are left with,

5y = -30

Then we would do the inverse operation of multiplication and divide by 5 on the left and right side of the equation.

5y/5 = -30/5

y = -6

At a party, everyone shook hands with everybody else. There were 66 handshakes. How many people were at the party?
Gnoma [55]

There would be 12 people at the party!

In general, with n+1 people, the number of handshakes is the sum of the first n consecutive numbers: 1+2+3+ ... + n.

Since this sum is n(n+1)/2, we need to solve the equation n(n+1)/2 = 66.

This is the quadratic equation n2+ n -132 = 0. Solving for n, we obtain 11 as the answer and deduce that there were 12 people at the party.

Since 66 is a relatively small number, you can also solve this problem with a hand calculator. Add 1 + 2 = + 3 = +... etc. until the total is 66. The last number that you entered (11) is n.

Hope this helps!

A basketball team played six games. In those games, the team won by 7 points, lost by 7, won by 8, won by 9, lost by 4, and won
Gemiola [76]

Based on the difference in scores for the basketball team over the six games, the mean difference in scores was 3

<h3>How to find the mean difference in scores?</h3>

The basketball team had 6 games and in these games, their scores were listed as differences in game scores.

The mean of these differences in scores can be found by adding the differences where they won and subtracting the differences where they lost and then dividing by the number of games:

The mean difference in game scores is:

= (7 - 7 + 8 + 9 - 4 + 5) / 6

= 18 / 6

= 3

I need someone who can explain how to do this so I can understand please ASAP!!
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

An area is just a number squared, so we need to find the square root of the area.

Square root of 25 = 5

So each edge is 5 feet.

Hope this helps :)
