Answer:
65 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to work backwards.
We end with 63 people, and at the stop we lost 19 people and gained 17.
; if x = # people at the beginning

There were 65 people on the train to begin with.
T: 8x+19
7x-2(4-2x)+6(5-x)-x+2-(6x+5) = 7x-8+2x+30+6x-x+2-6x-5 = 8x+19
Y: 56-8x
9-(-2-3x)+4(-x+6)-x+12-3(2x-3) = 9+2+3x-4x+24-x+12-6x+9 = 56-8x
Answer:
18/36 or 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 18 nickels, which is the numerator.
You add all the numbers together to get the denominator, which is 12+6+18=36.
Then, you put the two values in a fraction - 18/36
and simplify, to get you 1/2.
Here is your function:

You're looking for f(-1). To get your answer, you have to replace all the x's with -1.
Here is your new equation:

Multiply 2 by -1

<em>Remember:</em>
MULTIPLYING
- Positive(+) times negative(-) is equal to negative
- Positive(+) times positive(+) is equal to positive
- Negative(-) times negative(-) is equal to positive
- Negative(-) times positive(+) is equal to negative
DIVIDING
- Positive(+) divided by positive(+) is equal to positive
- Positive(+) divided by negative(-) is equal to negative
- Negative(-) divided by positive(+) is equal to negative
- Negative(-) divided by negative(-0 is equal to positive
Since you're multiplying a negative number by a positive number, the answer will be negative.
Here is your new equation:

Add -2 and 2:

That means your answer is 0
