-8 - 7x is the factored version.
First combine like terms (-9n-3n=-12n)
Then, subtract 6n on both sides (to get rid of the 6n) = -18n
Then, add 8 to both sides (does not matter) = 0
Finally divide (answer is 0)
The tax is 4%, do 1.36 divided by 34
Each die has six numbers, the total number of possible combinations is 6 * 6 = 36
The combinations in which you can get a sum of 5 are: 1 &4, 2 & 3, 4 &1, 3 &2
There are 4 different combinations of getting a sum of 5.
The probability would be 4/36, which reduces to 1/9
X = - 1/3 or an alternate form x = -0.3, x = -3 to the power of -1
