Answer:

= - 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

6y+6.7=2.(y-3)

6y+42=2.(y-3)

6y+42=2y+2.-3

6y+42=2y-6

4y=-48

4y/4 = -48/4

y=-48/4

y=-12.4/1.4

y= -12

Answer:

  y = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, the first step is to eliminate parentheses.

  6y +42 = 2y -6

Now, you have a 3-step equation. I generally start by subtracting the variable term with the lowest coefficient. That leaves a variable term with a <em>positive</em> coefficient.

  4y +42 = -6 . . . . . . subtract 2y from both sides (step 1)

Now, you want to eliminate the constant from the side of the equation that has the variable term. Add its opposite.

  4y = -48 . . . . . . . . . add -42 to both sides (step 2)

Finally, you divide by the coefficient of the variable.

  y = -12 . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 4 (step 3)

The solution is y = -12.

<em>Additional comment</em>

As you can see, the general approach is to obtain the variable on one side of the equation and a constant on the other side. You do this by performing the same math operation to both sides of the equation.

Here, we notice that the values outside parentheses are multiples of each other, so we can start by dividing by 2

  3(y +7) = y -3 . . . . . . divide both sides by 2

  3y +21 = y -3 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

Now, we can do steps 1 and 2 at the same time, by adding -21-y to both sides. This gets rid of unwanted variables and constants in one step. (Your teacher may want you to show separate steps.)

  (3y +21) +(-21 -y) = (y -3) +(-21 -y)

  2y = -24 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  y = -12 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of the variable (step 3)

Find the volume of the following figure. Round the answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

48 yd^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a pyramid = 1/3  * height * area of the base.

The area of the triangular base = 1/2 * height * base = 1/2*6*8

= 24 yd^2.

So the volume of the figure

= 1/3 * 6 * 24

= 2*24

= 48 yd^3.

Can someone please find the volume of this shape and show work for how you did it??
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

221.4m^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To work out the volume of this shape you will first need to work out the area of the triangle. To work out the area of the triangle you would multiply the base of 12 by the height of 4.1, which gives you 49.2. You would then need to divide 49.2 by 2, which gives you 24.6. This is because the formula for the area of a triangle is the same as that of a square, however a triangle is half of a square with the same length and width. To work out the volume you would multiply the area of the triangle, which is 24.6 by the height of 9, which gives you 221.4m^{3}

1) Multiply 12 by 4.1.

12*4.1=49.2

2) Divide 49.2 by 2.

49.2/2=24.6

3) Multiply 24.6 by 9.

24.6*9=221.4m^{3}

Find the volume of a cube that has the following dimensions:length=2x^2 width=x^3 height=x^2-6x+5 A) 4x^7-3x^6+8x^5 B) 2x^12-12x
fomenos

Answer:

Option D. 2x⁷ - 12x⁶ + 10x⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given:

Length (L) = 2x²

Width (w) = x³

Height (h) = x² - 6x + 5

Volume (V) =?

Volume (V) = length (L) x width (w) x height (h)

V = L x w x h

V = 2x² × x³ × x² - 6x + 5

V = (2x²) (x³) (x² - 6x + 5)

V = (2x⁵) (x² - 6x + 5)

Clear bracket

V = 2x⁷ - 12x⁶ + 10x⁵

Therefore, the volume of the cube is 2x⁷ - 12x⁶ + 10x⁵
