Solve $16x+9=9y-2x$ for $y$ .
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The solution for y is y = 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain how to solve an equation for one of the variables</em>

- We need to solve the equation 16x + 9 = 9y - 2 x for y

- That means we want to find y in terms of x and the numerical term

- the equation has two sides, one side contains x and numerical term

 and the other side contains y and x

- We need to separate y in one side, and other term in the other side

* <em>Lets do that</em>

∵ 16x + 9 = 9y - 2x

- Add 2x to both sides to cancel -2x from the right side

∴ 16x + 2x + 9 = 9y - 2x + 2x

- Add like terms in each side

∴ 18x + 9 = 9y

- Divide each term by the coefficient of y ⇒ (÷9)

∴ (18 ÷ 9)x + (9 ÷ 9) = (9 ÷ 9)y

∴ 2x + 1 = y

- Switch the two sides

∴ y = 2x + 1

* The solution for y is y = 2x + 1

The radius of the large sphere is double the radius of the
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Given:

Radius of large sphere: R1

Volume of sphere: V1

Radius of small sphere: R2

Volume of sphere: V2

R1=2R2

We know that:

Volume of a sphere: 4/3πR^3

Volume of large sphere: 4/3πR1^3

Now we know that R1=2R2(given)

Thus volume of large sphere(V1) 32/3πR2^3.

Volume of small sphere(V2): 4/3πR2^3.

Ratio of volume of large sphere to small sphere is 8:1.

There are four candidates (A. B, C, and D) and 115 voters. When the points were tallied (using 4 points for frst, 3 points for s
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

D had 310 points.

The final ranking is: B,A,D,C

Step-by-step explanation:

The problems states that:

There are 115 votes.

Each ballot has a vote for first place, that counts 4 points, a vote for second place, that counts 3 points, a vote for third place, that counts 2 points and a vote for fourth place that counts 1 point. This means that each ballot has 4+3+2+1 = 10 points.

Since there are 115 voters, there are 115 ballots. This means that the total points of A,B,C and D combined must be equal to 115*10 = 1150. So:

A + B + C + D = 1150

We already know that:

A had 320 points, B had 330 points, and C had 190 points.

So:

A + B + C + D = 1150

320 + 330 + 190 + D = 1150

D = 310

B had the most points, followed by A, D and C. So the final ranking is: B,A,D,C
