1) -5y - 9 = - (y - 1)

2) solve the parenthesis of the right side

-5y - 9 = - y + 1

3) add 5y to both sides

5y - 5y - 9 = -y + 5y + 1

- 9 = 4y + 1

4) Subtract 1 from both sides

-9 - 1 = 4y + 1 - 1

-10 = 4y

5) Divide both sides by 4

-10 / 4 = 4y/4

- 2.5 = y

Answer: y = - 2.5

A box with a square base and no top is to be made from a square piece of carboard by cutting 7 in. squares from each corner and
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The size of the cardboard should be  26  in\ by\ 26in

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

     The volume of the box is  V = 2527  \ in ^3

The length and the Width of the card is  

      L = W = Z

From the question we are told that 7 in squares were cut from each corner

So the length and the width of the box  would be  

              L = W = (Z - 7)

And the height would be  H  =  7 in

Mathematically the volume of the box can be represented as

              V  = Length\ of\ bx  * Width\ of\ box * Height\ of\ box

So the Volume would be

         V =  (Z-7)(Z-7) * 7

Substituting values

         (Z-7) ^2 = \frac{2527}{7}

          (Z-7) ^2 = 361  

          (Z-7) ^2 = 19^2

=>   Z - 7 = 19

        Z = 19 + 7

         Z =26 \ in
