2x-3y=42 solve for y
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

y=14+(2/3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your main goal is to get Y by itself on one side.

To start subtract 2x from both sides. This will give you -3y=42-2x.

Then you divide both sides by -3 to get Y by itself.

That will leave you with ...

y=14+(2/3x)

(remember the negatives cancel each other out)

Mrs. Cleaver mixes 1.24 liters of red paint with 3 times as much blue paint to make purple paint. She pours the paint equally in
otez555 [7]

The amount of blue paint in each container is \fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}.

Further explanation:

The mixture mixed by Mrs. Cleaver contains 1.24 litres of red paint with 3 times blue paint to obtain purple paint.

So, the amount of blue paint is calculated as,

{3} \times {1.24}=3.72 \text { liters}

Therefore, the total amount of paint mixture is the sum of blue paint and red paint.

\fbox{\begin \\\begin{aligned} \text{Total paint}= 1.24+3.72\\=4.96 \text{ liters}\\\end{aligned}\\\end{minispace}}

Now, as Mrs. Cleaver divides the paint mixture equally in 5 containers so the amount of paint in one container is calculated as,

\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Amount of paint in one container}&= \dfrac{4.96}{5}\\ &=0.992 \text{ liters} \end {aligned}}

Since amount of blue paint mixed is three times the red paint so the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is \dfrac{3}{4}.  

Now, as it is known that the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is \dfrac{3}{4} and the amount of paint in a container is 0.992 \text{ liters} then the blue paint in one container is calculated as,

\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Blue paint in one container} =\dfrac{3}{4} \times 0.992\\=0.248 \text{ liters}\end{aligned}}

Thus, the amount of blue paint in each of the five containers is \fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}.

Which of the following is an example of the difference of two squares
True [87]

Complete Question: Which of the following is an example of the difference of two​ squares?

A x² − 9

B x³ − 9

C (x + 9)²

D (x − 9)²

Answer:

A. x^2 - 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to spot an expression that is a difference of two squares is to note that the first term and the second term in the expression are both perfect squares. Both terms usually have the negative sign between them.

Thus, difference of two squares takes the following form: a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b).

a² and b² are perfect squares. Expanding (a + b)(a - b) will give us a^2 - b^2.

Therefore, an example of the difference of two squares, from the given options, is x^2 - 9.

x^2 - 9 can be factorised as x^2 - 3^2 = (x + 3)(x - 3).
