What is the value of y when x = 6? -3x + 9y = 18

Mathematics

Answer:

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression:

-3x+9y=18

We want to find y when x equals 6. Therefore, we can plug 6 in for x.

-3(6)+9y=18

Now, let's begin solving for y. First, multiply -3 and 6.

-18+9y=18

Next, add 18 to both sides of the equation. We add because 18 is negative and addition will cancel out the -18 on the left.

-18+18+9y=18+18

9y=18+18

9y=36

Finally, divide both sides by 9. We divide because y is being multiplied by 9, and division is the inverse of multiplication.

9y/9=36/9

y=36/9

y=4

When x=6 in the equation, y is equal to 4.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's plug in our x value.

-3(6)+9y=18

-18+9y=18

We add 18 to both sides.

9y=36

We divide both sides by 9.

y=4

Have a wonderful day! :D

An airplane climbs 100 feet during the first second after takeoff. In each succeeding second it climbs 100 feet more than it cli
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

15 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The distance covered by plane in first second = 100 ft,

Also, in each succeeding second it climbs 100 feet more than it climbed during the previous second,

So, distance covered in second second = 200,

In third second = 300,

In fourth second = 400,

............, so on....

Thus, the total distance covered by plane in n seconds = 100 + 200 + 300 +400......... upto n seconds

=\frac{n}{2}(2\times 100 + (n-1)100)  ( Sum of AP )

=\frac{n}{2}(200+100n-100)

=\frac{n}{2}(100+100n)

=50n+50n^2

Suppose the distance covered in n seconds is 12,000 feet,

\implies 50n+50n^2=12000

n+n^2=240

n^2+n-240=0

n^2+16n-15n-240=0

n(n+16)-15(n+16)=0

(n-15)(n+16)=0

\implies n=15\text{ or }n=-16

∵ n can not be negative,

Hence, after 15 seconds the plane will reach an altitude of 12,000 feet above its takeoff height.
