Hey!
The first step to solving the rest of this problem would be to distribute the parenthesis in -( 5x - 10 ).
<em>Original Equation :</em>
-( 5x - 10 )
<em>New Equation {Changed by Distributing the Parenthesis} :</em>
- ( 5x ) - ( -10 )
Now we'll simplify the equation.
<em>Old Equation :</em>
- ( 5x ) - ( -10 )
<em>New Equation {Simplified} :</em>
-5x + 10
Okay, now that that part of the equation has been changed, we can add the simplified part to our entire equation.
<em>New Equation :</em>
5x - 9 - 5x + 10
Next we need to group like terms.
<em>Old Equation :</em>
5x - 9 - 5x + 10
<em>New Equation {Changed by Grouping Like Terms} :</em>
5x - 5x - 9 + 10
And now we add the similar elements.
<em>Old Equation :</em>
5x - 5x - 9 + 10
<em>New Equation {Changed by Grouping Like Terms} :</em>
-9 + 10
And finally we simply add the numbers.
<em>Old Equation :</em>
-9 + 10
<em>Solution {Old Equation Solved} :</em>
1
<em>So, this means that 5x - 9 - ( 5x - 10 ) is</em> 1.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
0.15*t < 5.00
33 texts
Step-by-step explanation:
given : $0.15 per text; unlimited cost is $5.00
# of texts = t
0.15*t < 5.00
t < 33.33; since you cannot make 33.33 texts i will round down to 33 texts.
Basically you can send or receive up to 33 texts and it will be cheaper than $5.00
0.15(33) = $4.95
at 34 texts, 0.15(34) = $5.10
-4 x 9 - (-10)
= - 45 + 10
= - (45 - 10)
= - 35
Rule: Negative times positive is negative; Negative times negative is positive
45 + 32 + 37 = 114
114÷3 = 38
4 total quizzes,
for a 40 average on 4 quizzes she needs 40*4 = 160 total points
for 3 quizzes she has 45 +32 +37 = 114 points
160-114 = 46, she needs at least a 46 on the 4th quiz
600 +200 + 100 = 900
2000 - 900 = 1100
1100/6 = 183.33 so he can buy 183 games
