Solve 7c - 4c = -4c + 5y + 9 for c in terms of y.

34% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{9}{11}\)y + \(\frac{9}{11}\)
-\(\frac{3}{11}\)y + \(\frac{9}{11}\)
1\(\frac{1}{7}\)y + \(\frac{4}{7}\)
y - \(\frac{2}{5}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (c) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

7c - 4y = -4c + 5y + 9
7c = -4c + 5y + 9 + 4y
7c + 4c = 5y + 9 + 4y
11c = 9y + 9
c = \( \frac{9y + 9}{11} \)
c = \( \frac{9y}{11} \) + \( \frac{9}{11} \)
c = \(\frac{9}{11}\)y + \(\frac{9}{11}\)


2

Find the value of b:
9b + z = 1
b - 4z = 9

42% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{13}{37}\)
-\(\frac{27}{52}\)
\(\frac{21}{23}\)
-3\(\frac{4}{7}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of b so solve the first equation in terms of z:

9b + z = 1
z = 1 - 9b

then substitute the result (1 - 9b) into the second equation:

b - 4(1 - 9b) = 9
b + (-4 x 1) + (-4 x -9b) = 9
b - 4 + 36b = 9
b + 36b = 9 + 4
37b = 13
b = \( \frac{13}{37} \)
b = \(\frac{13}{37}\)


3

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r

c = π d

c = π r2

c = π d2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


4

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

76% Answer Correctly

problem

formula

expression

equation


Solution

An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.


5

Simplify 8a x 8b.

85% Answer Correctly
16ab
64ab
64\( \frac{b}{a} \)
64\( \frac{a}{b} \)

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

8a x 8b = (8 x 8) (a x b) = 64ab
