Great job on the test! Your answers are all correct.
For the first question, to solve for y, you can start by distributing the negative sign to both terms inside the parentheses. This gives you -5y - 9 = -y + 1. Next, combine like terms by subtracting -y from both sides and adding 9 to both sides. This simplifies the equation to -4y = 10. Finally, divide both sides by -4 to solve for y, giving you y = -10/4 which simplifies to y = -2 1/2.
For the second question, let's let the width of the rectangle be denoted as w. Since the length is 3 times the width, we can write the equation as 3w + 2w + 3w + 2w = 60. Simplifying this equation, we get 10w = 60. Dividing both sides by 10, we find that w = 6. Since the length is 3 times the width, the length is 3*6 = 18. Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are 6 cm by 18 cm.
The third question states the equation 14 + 3x - 7 = 7x + 7 - 4x. Simplifying this equation, we get 3x + 7 = 3x + 7. Since the variables have canceled out on both sides of the equation, this equation is always true.
For the fourth question, we are given the equation R = ts^2 + 3 and we need to solve for s. To do this, we start by subtracting 3 from both sides, giving us R - 3 = ts^2. Next, divide both sides by t to get (R - 3)/t = s^2. Finally, take the square root of both sides to solve for s, giving us s = sqrt((R - 3)/t).
The last question asks us to solve the equation x/5 - x/2 = 21 and find the value of x. To do this, we can start by finding a common denominator, which is 10. Multiplying both terms by 10, we get 2x - 5x = 210. Simplifying this equation further, we get -3x = 210. Finally, divide both sides by -3 to solve for x, which gives us x = -70.
