Follow PEMDAS.
You would first do your distributive property which is, -5(z+2). You would multiply -5 to z and -5 to 2 which will give you -5z + -10.
so now you have 2z-5z+ -10= -8 - 2z. Now you must isolate the variable. So subtract -8 to -10 which will give you -18.
Now you have the equation 2z-5z-18=-2z
Now combine like terms. 2z-5z= -3z
Now you have the equation -3z-18=-2z
Now you must move the -3z to the other side of the equal sign by adding the opposite which is +3z to -2z which will give you +1z
Now you have -18= 1z
Now you divide. -18 divided by 1 is -18.
So your final answer will be -18=z
Answer:
i think it would be choice D
Step-by-step explanation:
this would be because the 20 is 19.8 tons rounded up, the (1.1) is the increase of the original amount plus the 9.8 rounded up, and the (1.05) is the increase by 5.1. the reason why they multiply these like 20(1.1)(1.05) is because each number in the parenthesis is the increase, when you multiply something by 1.1 it will give you it's 100% + the 10% growth, same goes for the 1.05 which will give you the 100% + the 5% of 20(1.1)
in other words if you just multiplied by .1 you would only get 10% of what you're seeking while if you multiply by 1.1 you would get the 110%. the 1 is 100%, and the extra percentage you seek is the decimal (number behind the dot) that follows
Answer:
187 girls 139 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
first you divide 326 by 2 to get 163, and then you add 24 to it to find how many girls and then you subtract 24 from it to find how many boys
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
15 + (-8)
7
The answer would be 7 because you are only taking 15 plus negative 8 which would technically be the same as taking 15 minus 8, which would be 7.
