5y-1 equals y plus 9?

Simplifying 5y + -1 = y + 9 Reorder the terms: -1 + 5y = y + 9 Reorder the terms: -1 + 5y = 9 + y Solving -1 + 5y = 9 + y Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1y' to each side of the equation. -1 + 5y + -1y = 9 + y + -1y Combine like terms: 5y + -1y = 4y -1 + 4y = 9 + y + -1y Combine like terms: y + -1y = 0 -1 + 4y = 9 + 0 -1 + 4y = 9 Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + 4y = 9 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + 4y = 9 + 1 4y = 9 + 1 Combine like terms: 9 + 1 = 10 4y = 10 Divide each side by '4'. y = 2.5 Simplifying y = 2.5


What is - 2y - 5y?

-3


X plus 5y equals 0?

x + 5y = 0 so x = -5y or y = -x/5 You can express x in terms of y or y in terms of x but it is not possible to solve a single linear equation in two variables.


How do you simplify 2x plus 5y -7x plus 2xy?

2x+5y-7x+2xy combine like terms 5y-5x+2xy that's simplified because there are only 3 terms (x, y, and xy) you cannot combine x and y unless it's being multiplied


How do you solve the problem 3X plus 5Y equals 7?

To solve for two unknowns (x and y) you need two independent equations. All that you can do with the above is to express x in terms of y, as follows: 3X + 5Y = 7 => 3X = 7 - 5Y or X = (7 - 5Y)/3 or you can express y in terms of x: Y = (7 - 3X)/5


What is y over 5 equal to y over 6 plus 9?

y/5 = y/6+9 Multiply all terms by 30 to eliminate the fractions 6y = 5y+ 270 Subtract 5y from both sides 6y-5y = 270 y = 270


What is 5y - y?

5y - y = 4y


What is the answer for 2y-7 plus 5y equals 0?

2y - 7 + 5y = 0 Collecting like terms together, 7y - 7 = 0 or 7y = 7 So that y = 1


How do you factor 5y-65xy?

5y - 65xy '5' is a common factor both numbers. Hence 'take it out'. 5(y - 13xy) 'y' is a common factor to both terms, so take it out too!!!! 5y(1 - 13x) Done Factored!!!!!


Multiply y-5y 5?

y+5y


4x plus 5y equals -8?

4x + 5y = -8 is an equation with two variables. While you can solve for y = something, you won't come up with a single number. For example, 4x + 5y = -8 5y = -4x - 8 y = -4x/5 - 8/5. And you can do the same for x = something in terms of y.


What is 5y equal to?

Well, honey, 5y is equal to 5 times y. It's as simple as that. So if someone tells you 5y, just remember they're talking about 5 times whatever the heck y represents. Now go on and show off your math skills!
