A number line is a line that extends infinitely in both directions (marked by arrows) that shows a range of numbers with a consistent distance between increments.
- Draw a line
- Draw arrows on both sides pointing out
- Write the minimum and maximum values on the left and right side repectively
- Add appropriate increments with equal distances on the number line
4(x+2)+2=14
4x+8+2=14
4x+10=14
Subtract 10 from both sides
4x=4
Divide by 4 on both sides
x=1
Answer:
B (5/8 - 6/8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we can just multiply the second fraction by two to get a similar denominator, we just need to multiply the second fraction.
Since Jessica has 40 cents, and one gum ball costs 8 cents, you need to divide 40/8 = 5. The answer is 5 gum balls
