Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the coefficients of the three y terms:

(1 + 3 + 5)y = -18.

Then (9)y = -18.

Dividing both sides b y 9, we get:

y = -18/9, or y = -2.

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out the value of y, we have to isolate the y. In order to do that, we first have to combine all like terms and we do that by adding the numbers with variables together.

1y+3y+5y=9y

9y=-18

Now we have to get the y by itself so we divide 9 on both sides of the equation because once we do that, we can cancel out the 9.

9/9=1 -18/9=-2

So the answer is y=-2.

You have 68 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular plot that borders on a river. If you DO NOT fence the side
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

168 = L + 2W

And you want to maximize LW.

Which means you want to maximize W (168 - 2W), or 168W - 2W^2.

To maximize that, the derivative must go to zero.

0 = 168 - 4W, or W = 42. And L = 84. Done. :-)

If y varies directly as x and y = 24 when<br> x= 16, what is y when x = 50? PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!!!
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

y = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y\ \alpha\ \ x

y=24; x =16

Required

Find y when x = 50

We have:

y\ \alpha\ \ x

Express as equation

y = kx

Solve for k

k = \frac{y}{x}

When y=24; x =16

k = \frac{24}{16}

k = \frac{3}{2}

When x = 50, we have:

y = kx

y = \frac{3}{2} * 50

y = 75
