Answer: x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 x + 2 = -5x/8 - 5

x/4 + 2 = -5x / 8 - 5

we collect like term

x/4 + 5x / 8 = -5 - 2

2x + 5x / 8 = -7

7x / 8 = -7

cross multiply

7x = -56

Divide bothside by 7

7x / 7 = -56/7

x = -8

Assuming that a cheese sandwich consists of 2 slices of bread and 3 slices of cheese, determine the number of whole cheese sandw
pav-90 [236]
If we are to consider the number of slices of bread first,

      number of sandwiches = (28 slices of bread)(1 sandwich/ 2 slices of bread)
      number of sandwiches = 14 sandwiches

If we are to consider the number of slices of cheese
 
      number of sandwiches = (45 slices of cheese)(1 sandwich / 3 slices of cheese)
     number of sandwiches = 15 sandwiches

Since, 14 is smaller than 15 then, 14 is the answer.

<em>Answer: 14 sandwiches</em>

Bob decided to go to college, the cost of going to school will be $4,474 per semester, (there are 2 semesters per year) plus $38
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 semester = 4474

8 semester = 8* 4474                    35792

1 semester books = 389

8 semester books = 8* 389            <u> 3112 </u>

Total                                                38904  

If he is going to pay this off in 10 years, he would have to have an increase of 3890.40 (after all income taxes) to pay it off. Fewer years would mean dividing by the number of years.

So for 8 years for example, he would need 4863 every year.

That number is obtained by dividing 38904 / 8

In 6 years he would need

38904/6 = 6484 extra dollars.
