The net number of yards lost by the cowboys football team is; 8 yards.

<h3>How many yards did the team gain or lose?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the number of yards gained or lost by the football team during each of the three plays is; gained 7 yards, lost 8 yards and then lost 7 more yard.

Hence, by polarising yard gain as positive and yard loss as negative; we have;

Net total = 7 - 8 -7 = -8

Hence, the team lost 8 yards in the total game.

six times jasons collection of books and one-third of nathans collection add up to 134 books one-third of jasons collection and
atroni [7]
6j + 1/3n = 134...multiply by 3....18j + n = 402
1/3j + n = 31....multiply by 3....j + 3n = 93

the multiplying by 3 is optional...I just did it because it is easier to work with equations when there are no fractions.

18j + n = 402....multiply by -3
j + 3n = 93
----------------
-54j - 3n = - 1206 (result of multiplying by -3)
j + 3n = 93
----------------add
-53j = - 1113
j = -1113/-53
j = 21

j + 3n = 93
21 + 3n = 93
3n = 93 - 21
3n = 72
n = 72/3
n = 24

so Jasons collection (j) consists of 21 books and Nathans collection (n) consists of 24 books

1. A-Tunes requires a membership fee of $12 a month and $1 for each download.
matrenka [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

After 16 downloads the charges will equal each other.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

First set up an equation

x = Downloads

12 + 1x = 5 + 1.5x

Solve

12 + 1x = 5 + 1.5x <- Rewrite your equation

-5          -5            <- Subtract 5 from both sides

 8 + 1x = 1.5x       <- Simplify

      -1x    -1x         <- Subtract 1 from both sides

        8 = 0.5x      <- Simplify

        8 = 1/2x       <- Convert 0.5 to a fraction to make the next step easier

       16 = x            <- Multiply both sides by 2 to divide by

                                 a fraction

I need to see how to work this problem 6-(-7)=
alisha [4.7K]
Hi there!

Here is what the rules says

+ * + = +  (Plus times plus = plus)
+*- = - (Plus times minus = minus)
- * - = + (Minus times minus = Plus
- * + = -  (minus times plus = minus)

You need to know the rules by heart because you will use it a lot.

So let see how it works with the problem

6 -(-7)
What does the rules say? It says
- * - = plus  
So, we gonna use PLUS for the sign
6-(-7) = 6 + 7 = 13

13 is the correct answer.

I hope I helped. Please let me know if you have more questions.
