Answer: None of these.
Step-by-step explanation: a quotient is part of DIVISION
In order to determine the number of pens present in the container, we need to set up equations from the given in the problem statement. We do as follows:
let x the number of pencils
y the number of pens
From the statement, 9 more pencils then pens in a container,
x = y + 9
From the statement, there are 25 writing utensils in the container in all,
x + y = 25
We use substitution method to calculate for x and y,
y + 9 + y = 25
2y = 16
y = 8
x = 17
Therefore, there are 8 pens in the container and 17 pencils.
f(x) means x = -2 if you multiply 1/2 by -2 you get -1
in simplist form it should be 3x+16
Yes because when you subtract a number, you can also say that you added a negative. So if it dropped 23 degrees, then you also added -23 degrees
