15y + 17 = 2y - 25

Subtract 2y from both sides

5y + 17 = 2y - 25
-2y -2y
-------------------------------
3y + 17 = - 25

Subtract 17 from both sides

3y + 17 = -25
-17 -17
---------------------------
3y = - 42

Divde by 3

3y = -42
/3 /3

y = -14

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

<h2>This equation has no natural roots.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2+x-5=0\\\\\text{Use the quadratic formula for}\ ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\text{For the given equation:}\\\\a=3,\ b=1,\ c=-5\\\\b^2-4ac=1^2-4(3)(-5)=1+60=61\\\\x=\dfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{61}}{(2)(3)}=\dfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{61}}{6}\notin\mathbb{N}$

Lydia has 400$ in her bank account. Each week she withdraws 10$ for spending money. She also uses 5$ each week to get credit on

Softa [21]

Answer:

400 - 15x < 300

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that she has 400$ in her bank account.

Now, Each week she withdraws 10$ for spending money. She also uses 5$ each week to get credit on her apple account.

Total total withdrawal each week = 10 + 5 = $15

If number of weeks she has been withdrawing is x, then would have withdrawn $15x after x number of weeks.

Thus, amount left after x number of weeks is:

400 - 15x

We want to find the inequality statement can be used to determine how many weeks it will take for her bank account balance to drop below 300.

Thus;

400 - 15x < 300
