Answer:
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7y - (9 + 4y) = - 3 ← distribute parenthesis by - 1
7y - 9 - 4y = - 3 , that is
3y - 9 = - 3 ( add 9 to both sides )
3y = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 2
The rumor is spreading to a double amount of people each time and started with only one person.
On the first day, two people knew it. 2¹ = 2
On the second day, four people knew it. 2² = 4
On the third day, eight people knew it. 2³ = 8
On the nth day, the people that will know it = 2ⁿ
Thus, on the eighth day: 2⁸ = 256 people will know it
73 lb 9 oz is 1177 oz
