Answer:

B. y=(x-1500)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Monthly budget = x dollars

Monthly mortgage = $1500

Recreational activities = 1/4 of remaining budget

Amount in dollar spent on recreational activities =

(Monthly budget - monthly mortgage) * 1/4

(x - 1500) * 1/4

Hence,

y = (x - 1500) / 4

Solve the equation. Check your solution. - 6y + 5 = 29y - 2​
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

y = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-6y + 5 = 29y + -2

Reorder the terms:

5 + -6y = 29y + -2

Reorder the terms:

5 + -6y = -2 + 29y

Solving

5 + -6y = -2 + 29y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-29y' to each side of the equation.

5 + -6y + -29y = -2 + 29y + -29y

Combine like terms: -6y + -29y = -35y

5 + -35y = -2 + 29y + -29y

Combine like terms: 29y + -29y = 0

5 + -35y = -2 + 0

5 + -35y = -2

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + -35y = -2 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + -35y = -2 + -5

-35y = -2 + -5

Combine like terms: -2 + -5 = -7

-35y = -7

Divide each side by '-35'.

y = 0.2

Simplifying

y = 0.2

Which of the following is a solution of y &gt; |x| - 5? a.(4, -1)<br> B.(-1, -4)<br> C.(-4, 1)
Savatey [412]
Fill your inequality in with the y and x provided and then do the math.  (4, -1) would fill in like this (I will use brackets to indicate absolute value symbols, since there are none in the equation editor): -1\ \textgreater \ [4]-5  The right side is in fact equal to the left side so that's not the answer.  For (-1, -4): -4\ \textgreater \ [-1]-5 and these are also equal.  Let's try C now (-4, 1): 1\ \textgreater \ [-4]-5.  The absolute vale of -4 is 4 so 4 - 5 = -1 which is, in fact, less than 1.  So C is our answer.
