Hello there!

Make it an equation:

x + x + 2 = -88
2x + 2 = -88
2x = -88 + 2
2x = -86
x = -86/2
x = -43.

The numbers are -43 and -45.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

-88/2 = -44

since 44 is an even number use 1 number above and 1 number below

-43 +-45 = -88

Stan drove for h hours at a constant rate of r miles per hour. How many miles did he cover during the final 20 minutes of his dr

photoshop1234 [79]

20 minutes is $\frac{1}{3}$ of an hour (60 minutes).

Stan's constant rate is r miles per hour, which means he drove r miles in 60 minutes. So how many miles did he drive in 20 minutes? As explained in the first line, 20 minutes is $\frac{1}{3}$ of an hour. Since his rate is constant, Stan would drive $\frac{1}{3}$ of what he cover in 60 minutes, which is r miles.

Hence, Stan drove $\frac{1}{3}r$ miles in 20 minutes.

ANSWER: $\frac{1}{3}r$ miles

the equation of the line has form

y=kx+b

$\left \{ {{5=k*0+b} \atop {9=k*2+b}} \right. \\b=5\\9=2k+5\\2k=4\\k=2$ , so

$y=2x+5$

The second line is parallel to the first and runs 7 units lower, so b=5

$0=1k+5\\k=-5\\y=-5x+5$

Mitchell wants to order CDs on the Internet. Each CD costs $15.99, and shipping for the entire order is $9.99. Mitchell has no m

katovenus [111]

Answer:

maximum 5 CDs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Mitchell can order a maximum of x CDs

It has been given that each CD costs $15.99, and shipping for the entire order is $9.99.

Thus, we have the total cost for x CDs

$15.99x+9.99$

Now, Mitchell has no more than $100 to spend. It means

$15.99x+9.99$

Subtract 9.99 to both sides

$15.99x$

Divide both sides by 15.99

$x$

Hence, Mitchell can order maximum 5 CDs
