Question

Solve this equation: y/9 + 5 = 0.
A. y = 45
B. y = 5
C. y = –45
D. y = –5

Answer 1

y/9 +5 = 0 subtract from both sides 5 and will get

y/9 +5 -5 = -5

y/9 = -5 multiple both sides by 9 and will get

y = - 45 so choice C. is right sure

hope helped

Answer 2

C.
`y=-45`

Explanation:

We are given that an expression

`(y)/(9)+5=0`

We have to find the value of y

`(y)/(9)+5=0`

Using subtractive property of equality

Subtractive property of equality : When a positive number goes from left side of equal to to right hand side of equal to then the sign changes into negative sign.

`(y)/(9)=-5`

Using multiplication property of equality then we get

`y=-5*9`

`y=-45`

Hence, option C is true.
