7 0

Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Combine like terms.

  • (y+3y+5y)=-18
  • 9y=-18

Step 2: Divide both sides by 9.

  • 9y/9=-18/9
  • y=-2

Step 3: Check if solution is correct.

  • -2+3(-2)+5(-2)=-18
  • -2-6-10=-18
  • -18=-18

Therefore, y = -2.

the sum of three numbers is 79. The second number is 5 times the first, while the third is 16 more than the first. Find the Numb
faust18 [17]
Let the 1st number be x; 2nd number be y; 3rd number be z.

x + y + z = 79

x = number we are looking for.
y = x * 5 ==> 5 times the first
z = x + 16 ==> 16 more than the first

Therefor,

x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79

1st step, multiply the 2nd number: x * 5 = 5x

x + 5x + x + 16 = 79

Add all like numbers:

7x + 16 = 79

To get x, transfer 16 to the other side and change its sign from positive to negative.

7x = 79 - 16
7x = 63

To get x, divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 63/7
x = 9

To check. Substitute x by 9.

x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79

9 + (9 * 5) + (9 + 16) = 79
9 + 45 + 25 = 79
79 = 79 equal. value of x is correct.
