(c/b) - x = 2d
(c/b) = 2d + x
c = b(2d + x)
c = 2db + bx
ac + bd = x
ac = x - bd
c = (x - bd) / a OR c = (x/a) - (bd/a)
Let's say we placed dominoes close together such that they only fell over one way: to the right hand side. Let's call the dominoes A and B.
Domino A is to the left of domino B. If we push over domino A, then it will hit domino B to cause it to fall over as well. We have a mini chain reaction of sorts. The fall of A triggers the fall of B, but not the other way around.
For this problem, we can think of domino A as "Jillian gets a raise" and domino B as "she will buy a new car". The raise causes her to get a new car, but not vice versa.
Since we're told in the last sentence she definitely got the raise, this must mean she will definitely get the new car.
In terms of symbols, the law of detachment is stated as
- If P, then Q
- P is true
- Therefore Q is true
Side note: some books might use the term "modus ponens" instead of "law of detachment". They're the same thing.
Answer:
m<r =75
PS=2.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
they are equal so you should be able to figure it out eventually
You look at the sign behind the second term. Here are some examples...
2x + 8 - 4x
You are going to subtract 2x - 4x because there is a negative sign behind the 4x.
8y + 1 + y
You are going to add 8y + y because there is a positive sign behind the y.
4 + 2x - 5 + 7x
You are going to subtract 4 - 5 because there is a negative sign behind the 5.
You are going to add 2x + 7x because there is a positive sign behind the 7x.
Answer:
The coefficient of q is 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The two expressions are
(23q – 34) and (–16q – r)
and .
(–16q – r)
The sum of the two expressions is
23q - 34 + -16q - r
When we group like terms the expression will be,
=23q - 16q - r - 34
When we simplify the expression will now be
=7q - r - 34
The coefficient of q is the constant behind q in the expression.
The coefficient of q is therefore 7.
