Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be a number

Rewrite the sentence into something that can be interpreted better:

A number subtracted from -5 is -2

Now you can translate the statement into an equation:

-5 - n = -2

Solve for n

-n = 3

n = -3

If a toaster oven that is connected to a 120 v plug has 16 A of current running through it, what is the resistance?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The resistance is 7.5 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

V = IR

V = voltage  I is the current and R = resistance

120 = 16*R

Divide by 16 on both sides

120/16 = 16R/16

7.5 = R

The resistance is 7.5 ohms
