Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the coefficients of the three y terms:

(1 + 3 + 5)y = -18.

Then (9)y = -18.

Dividing both sides b y 9, we get:

y = -18/9, or y = -2.

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out the value of y, we have to isolate the y. In order to do that, we first have to combine all like terms and we do that by adding the numbers with variables together.

1y+3y+5y=9y

9y=-18

Now we have to get the y by itself so we divide 9 on both sides of the equation because once we do that, we can cancel out the 9.

9/9=1 -18/9=-2

So the answer is y=-2.

Answer:

4. 54- 8.5x>20

Step-by-step explanation:

Catherine only has $54, so she cannot spend more than that.

The canvas will cost at least $20, but we don't know how much exactly.

The tubes cost $8.50 each.

So, she starts with a total budget of $54, out of which she will buy paints (8.5x) and she wants to have at least $20 left for canvas.

So, we transpose those facts into the inequity:

54 - 8.5x > 20

Frank Fitness found a correlation coefficient of -0.74 between hours of strenuous exercise each week and a standard measure of b
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

b. strong; negative

Step-by-step explanation:

When a correlation has a value greater than 0.74 or lesser than -0.70, it is classified as a strong correlation.

A negative value for a correlation means a negative (downhill) linear correlation.

Therefore, since the correlation coefficient found by Frank Fitness is -0.74, there is a strong and negative relationship between hours of strenuous exercise and body mass.

A kite has a perimeter of 70 centimeters. One of the shorter sides measures 16 centimeters. What are the lengths of the other th
kari74 [83]

Answer:

a kite has 2 short sides and 2 long sides. The 2 short sides are equal. The 2 long sides are also equal. This means that the other short side is 16cm. And the remaining longer sides can be found like this:

let's pretend *y* is the long side

2*y = 70 - 16 - 16. (two of the long sides = 70 - short side - another short side)

so use algebra to find y.

2*y = 38

y = 19 so the long sides are both 19cm each

Your final answer: 16cm, 19cm, 19cm
