Answer:

-2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

so lets start

you want to distribute the -2 to the parenthesis

so -2(x) = -2x  and  -2(-4) = 8 because of 2 negatives make a positive

so then you just add them

-2x+8

Answer: -2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

  • In order to simplify this we must distribute the -2 to the values inside of the parentheses.

-2*x = -2x\\\-2 * -4 = 8

Since two negatives are being multiplied, the product is a positive number.

The final simplified answer is -2x + 8 .

Solve the equation 29 - (x+8) = 6x - 7
max2010maxim [7]
First step you should do is s<span>implify both sides of your equation:
</span>29-(x+8)=6x-7
Distribute the Negative Sign:
29+-1(x+8)=6x-7
29+-1x+(-1)(8)=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x+-7
<span>Combine Like Terms:
</span>(-x)+(29+-8)=6x-7
-x+21=6x-7
<span>Subtract 6x from both sides:
</span>-x+21-6x=6x-7-6x
-7x+21=-7
<span>Subtract 21 from both sides:
</span>-7x+21-21=-7-21 
-7x=-28 
<span>Divide both sides by -7:
</span>-7x/-7 = -28/-7
And now your answer should be:
x=4

The divisor of 0.004 is almost zero. What does this tell you about the quotient?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

  Its magnitude will be larger than 0.004.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a divisor is less than 1, the quotient will be greater than the dividend.

When the divisor is "almost zero", the quotient will be much greater than the dividend. Here, the dividend may be considered to be "almost zero", so we cannot say anything about the actual quotient except to say its magnitude will be greater than the dividend.

_____

The dividend is positive, so the quotient will have the same sign as the divisor. (Negative divisors can be "almost zero," too.)

Paraphin [41]
The handshake problem!
Each of the five will play against 4 others, but since A vs B can be considered the same game as B vs A, so there are 5*4/2=10 matches.
