Solve for y in the following equation.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

$y = \frac{z^2 - x}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\sqrt{x + 2y} = z$

Required:

Solve for y (make y the subject of the formula)

SOLUTION:

$\sqrt{x + 2y} = z$

Square both sides

$(\sqrt{x + 2y})^2 = z^2$

$x + 2y = z^2$

Subtract both sides by x

$2y = z^2 - x$

Divide both sides by 2

$y = \frac{z^2 - x}{2}$

Using google translate:
When photocopying a credential, it is first enlarged to triple and subsequently the resulting copy is halved. What is the final effect on the original credential? If the credentials is a rectangle of 10 by 6 cm. What area will you have in the first photocopy? And in the second?

Original: 10 by 6 cm ; Area = length * width = 10 x 6 = 60 cm²

first copy: enlarged to triple
10 x 3 = 30
6 x 3 = 18
30 x 18 = 540 cm²

second copy: halved
30 x 1/2 = 15
18 x 1/2 = 9
15 x 9 = 135 cm²
