We know that C is 385, so we can plug that in to get the equation 385=15n+85. To find the number of watches, we have to solve for n.
To do that we have to...
385=15n+85
First subtract both sides of the equal sign by 85 (because we need to do the opposite)
300=15n (because 85-85 is zero, so we eliminated that, and 385-85 is 300)
Now we divide both sides of the equal sign by 15 (again, opposites)
20=n (because 15n/15 leaves us with n since both 15s cancel out, and 300/15 is 20)
So the number of watches made were 20.
Answer:
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
5= 1/5x -3
Add 3 to each side
5+3= 1/5x -3+3
8 = 1/5x
Multiply by 5 to isolate x
5*8 = 1/5x *5
40 =x
What must be true is the expression will actually be adding 10 + (+ x), because of the two marks you have to make when subtracting by a negative.
The subtraction sign is also the negative sign. So in this case, the expression is also saying -x, which means there is two negative signs.
A double negative is a positive, so in this case the x will be turned to a positive integer.
If this is still too confusing, she can plug in a number to replace x. Let’s try it with -2:
Ex. 10 - (-2)= 12.
The two negative signs turn into one positive sign, AKA an addition sign. So, the above expression can be simplified as 10 + 2, or 12.
Answer:
I am pretty sure it is when you have a sequence of numbers that you are subtracting or adding from by the same constant over and over
Step-by-step explanation:
an=a1+(n-1)d
d=common difference
an= the nth term in the sequence
a1 first term in the sequence. (Usually you can plug in 1, as the n, and work from there)
