Let's read through this and make an equation:
? ("number")
? / -7 ("quotient of a number and -7")
(? / -7) - 2 ("decreased by 2")
(? / -7) - 2 = 10 ("is 10")

Now we can solve:
(? / -7) - 2 = 10
? / -7 = 12
? = -84

The number is -84

Answer: He will have $1974 in April.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total money he earned = $2200

He spent $50 per month gym membership, a $68 monthly phone plan $48 monthly gas plan and $60 monthly fun plan.

So , Money he has left = Money he earned - Total expenditure

= $ ( 2200- (50+68+48+60))

= $ (2200- 226)

= $ 1974

Hence, He will have $1974 in April.

For the given triangle, the value of x equals 30.9892 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In the triangle, the angle is 40°, the opposite side has a length of 26 units, the adjacent side has a length of x units while the hypotenuse is not given.

To determine the value of x, we determine the value of the tan of the given triangle.

To calculate the tan of angle A we divide the opposite side's length by the the adjacent side's length.

$tan A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacent side}.$

Step 2:

The length of the opposite side = 26 units.

The length of the adjacent side = x units.

$tan A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacent side}, tan 40 = 0.8390, tan A = \frac{26}{x} .$

$0.8390 = \frac{26}{x} , x = \frac{26}{0.8390} = 30.9892.$

So x measures 30.9892 units.

3 drops : 4 pints = x drops : 16 pints

3drops/4pints = x/16pints

(3drops/4pints)*16pints = x
*cancel pints unit*
(3drops/4)*16 = x
(16*3)drops/4 = x
48 drops / 4 = x
12 drops = x (ANSWER)
