Question: x = 2y2 +3 if x = 53 what NEGATIVE value of y makes this an equality
Answer:
x= 2y2 + 3
53 = 2y2 + 3
53 - 3 = 2y2
50/2 = y2
25 = y2
Take the Square Root of Both sides so we can get:
y = Square root of 25
so:
y = EITHER 5 or -5
Then the ANSWER is -5 (since we need the NEGATIVE Value of Y)

What is the negative root in the equation x2 x 2 0?
Without an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be an equation.
When should you use the addition property of equality to eliminate one variable in a system of equation?
When the coefficient of that variable, in which you want to eliminate, is negative.
Can variables be positive or negative?
both, variables can be anything
How do you slove negative 2w equals r plus s?
Not sure that you can slove anything. -2w = r + s is one linear equation in 3 unknown variables. You need three independent equations in 3 variables to be able to solve them.
In this equation is X positive negative or zero x plus 9 6?
In the equation x + 9 = 6, x is negative.
What is the negative root in the equation x2 x 2 0?
Without an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be an equation.
Is point 2 3 on the line represented by the equation x negative 2y negative 4?
Without an equality sign the expression given can't be considered to be an equation. But if you mean: x-2y = -4 then y = 0.5x+2
How many solutions do absolute value equations have?
An equation with absolute values instead of simple variables has twice as many solutions as an otherwise identical equation with simple variables, because every absolute value has both a negative and a positive counterpart.
When should you use the addition property of equality to eliminate one variable in a system of equation?
When the coefficient of that variable, in which you want to eliminate, is negative.
Can variables be positive or negative?
both, variables can be anything
Are there negative correlations between two variables?
There can be. It depends on the variables.
Are negative numbers discrete random variables?
Discrete variables must be countable and not negative. So no a negative number must be a continuous variable.
The equation y -3x2 describes a parabola. Which way does the parabola open?
The given terms can't be an equation without an equality sign but a negative parabola opens down wards whereas a positive parabola opens up wards.
What do you do if you have a negative discriminant in a quadriatic equation?
By calculating the discriminant of the equation and if it's negative the equation will have no solutions
How do you slove negative 2w equals r plus s?
Not sure that you can slove anything. -2w = r + s is one linear equation in 3 unknown variables. You need three independent equations in 3 variables to be able to solve them.
If two variables have a negative linear correlation is the slope of the least squares negative?
Negative
Which of the following is an equation of a line that passes through the point 0 5 and has a negative slope?
If you mean a slope of -1 then it is: y = -x+5
