Answer:
2 because it holds the same value as -2 and its the additive inverse
a = interest rate of first CD
b = interest rate of second CD
and again, let's say the principal invested in each is $X.

Answer: Area=36
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
4 + 5(x + 2) = 7x
4 + 5x + 10 = 7x
5x - 7x = - 4 - 10
- 2x = - 14
- x = - 14/2
- x = - 7
x = 7
For this problem, it is really important to find who voted on Tuesday first.
90×(3/5)= 54
54 people voted on Tuesday. Since the people who voted on Wednesday was 1/4 of the members who did not vote on Tuesday.
90-54=36×(1/4)=9
9 people voted on Wednesday. Now add Tuesday and Wednesday together to find the ones that didn't vote.
54+9=63;90-63=27
27 people did not vote at all.
