How do you solve twelve less than the quotient of a number and 7 is -2

Drupady [299]3 years ago

Remark

One of the things you need to do is learn to read phrase by phrase.

What is the quotient of a number and 7? That meas you have a number, x, and it is divided by 7. What you do that the answer you get is the quotient.

x/7 is what you know so for. Now the first part says you take 12 away from that.

x/7 - 12 is what you have after doing that.

The result you get is - 2

x/7 - 12 = - 2 Add 12 to both sides

x/7 - 12 + 12 = - 2 + 12

x/7 = 10 Now multiply by 7

x = 10 *7

x = 70 <<< Answer the number is 70

How do I solve this finding the first four of the sequence?
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a(1) = -7 (given)

a(2) = a(1) + 4 = -7 + 4 = -3

a(3) = a(2) + 4 = -3 + 4 = 1

a(4) = a(3) + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5

Express the radical using the imaginary unit, i.
MrMuchimi

Answer:

±3i

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the value ±√-9, we are to express the value using the imaginary number 'I'

±√-9 = ±√9×-1

= ±√9 × √-1

In complex number, √-1 = i

The expression becomes;

±√9 = ±3 × i

±√9 = ±3i

Hence the value in simplified form is ±3i

Explain how you know that the equations 1/4=2x and 1/4/x=2have the same solution
il63 [147K]

the equations 1/4=2x and 1/4/x=2have the same solution

because 1 / 4/ x = 2 can be simplified to

1 / 4 = 2x which is the same with the first equation

Solve for x = 1/8

Then substitute it to the both equation

¼ = 2 ( ¼)

¼ = ¼

2nd equation

1/ 4 /( 1/8) = 2

2 =2
