\\ \tt\Rrightarrow (1-y)(3-y)(6-y)=-70

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow -y(1+1)(3+1)(6+1)=-70

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow y(2)(4)(7)=70

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow y(56)=70

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{70}{56}

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{5}{4}

#2

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow (1-y)(3-y)(6-y)=120

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow -y(1+1)(3+1)(6+1)=120

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow -y(2)(4)(7)=120

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow 56y=-120

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{-120}{56}

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{-15}{7}

Answer:

  • i. y = 8, ii. y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

  • (1 - y)(3 - y)(6 - y) = -70

We can see the divisors are 2 and 3 apart.

i.

<u>Factorize -70 so that divisors are 2 and 3 apart:</u>

  • - 70 = (- 2)*(- 5)*(- 7)

<u>The smallest one is 1 - y and -7:</u>

  • 1 - y = -7
  • y = 1 + 7
  • y = 8

ii

<u>Factorize 120 so that divisors are 2 and 3 apart:</u>

  • 120 = 3*5*8

<u>The smallest one is 1 - y and 3:</u>

  • 1 - y = 3
  • y = 1 - 3
  • y = -2

Which of the following is the point and slope of the equation y - 11 = 3(x + 13)?
4vir4ik [10]
The answer is A.

The equation simplifies to y=3x+50.
So, C is already not an option.

Now we just plug in points to see if the point works for the equation.

A-11=3(-13)+50
11=-39+50

11=11

Thus, this point falls on the line of this equation and is a point.

So, the answer is A.

I hope this helps!

Find the ratio of x to y is 5y=3x
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

given 5y = 3x ( divide both sides by 3 )

\frac{5}{3} y = x ( divide both sides by y )

\frac{5}{3} = \frac{x}{y}
