Simplify (-x^2 – 28x + 7) + (-7x^2 + 14x + 8).

Anon25 [30]

Add numbers with the same amount of variables

-x^2 + (-7x^2) = -8x^2

– 28x (+ 14x )= -14x

7 (+ 8) = 15

-18x² - 14x + 15 is your answer

hope this helps

There are 24 pens in a desk drawer. The pens are either red or blue. The ratio of red pens to blue pens is 5:1. How many pens ar

Flura [38]

Answer:

The number of red pens is 20.

The number of blue pens is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, the ratio of number of red pens to the number of blue pens is 5 : 1.

∴ Let us assume that the number of red pens be 5x and number of blue pens be x.

Total number of pens in the desk drawer = 24

Now, according to question :

Number of red pens + Number of blue pens = 24

⇒5x + x = 24

⇒6x = 24

⇒ $x=\frac{24}{6}=4$

So, number of red pens in the drawer = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20

Number of blue pens in the drawer = x = 4

Answer:

slope = $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 6) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{6-0}{4+8}$ = $\frac{6}{12}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$
