For this case we have the following expression:

Applying distributive property to the terms within parentheses taking into account that:

We have:

We add similar terms taking into account that:
Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.

Thus, an equivalent expression is:

Answer:

Answer:
n = - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
n/9 + 2/3 = - 2/3
n/9 = - 2/3 - 2/3
n/9 = - 4/3
n = 9(- 4/3)
n = -36/3
n = - 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The wording "fewer than" is translated to the math symbol "less than". The variable n represents the number of students.
<em>the number of students</em> is fewer than 18
translates to ...
n < 18
__
The wording "at least" translates to the math symbol "greater than or equal to."
<em>the number of students</em> is at least 15
translates to ...
n ≥ 15
<span>-1<0
so use 2x+1
2(-1)+1=-2+1=-1
-
</span><span>F(-1) means "Evaluate F(x) when x=-1"
Since -1 is less than 0, this means that F(x) = 2x+1. This is because F(x) = 2x+1 when x < 0</span>
