Answer:
B 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the two numbers are 16 and -25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be x and y
x+y=-9
x-y=-41
By substitution
y=-9-x
x-(-9-x)=-41
x+9+x=-41
2x=-41-9
2x=-50
x=-25
y=-9-(-25)
y=16
Answer:
On Tuesday
3/4 + 3/4 = 3/2 = 1 1/2 = 1.5
On Wednesday
2/4 + 1 1/4 = 7/4 = 1 3/4 = 1.75
Then we subtract
1.75 - 1.5 = 0.25
The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12
