(x+5)*(-2) = 6

distribute

-2x -10 = 6

add 10 to each side

-2x -10 +10 = 6+10

-2x = 16

divide by -2

-2x/-2 = 16/-2

x = -8

The number is -8

Can a -150/10 be classified as both a rational number and a integer
irakobra [83]
Yes! This is because -150/10 can be simplified to be -15, which is a rational number.

The word “rational” sounds like another math word you’ve heard of before. Do you know what it is?

Well, it’s “ratio”!! Ratios can be seen in the forms x:y and x/y.


ANY RATIONAL NUMBER HAS THE ABILITY TO BE WRITTEN AS A RATIO!! This will completely exclude numbers with super long decimal points (ex: 1.2345678809928374737272828...)

This number also meets the requirements of being an integer. An integer is any whole number (this excludes decimals and fractions)

I know it’s written as a fraction. However, the fraction could be simplified, making it -15, which means this is both a rational number and an integer!!

Which sentence uses present tense?
mamaluj [8]
As for this problem, the answer would most probably be and most likely be C. The piles of bones foreshadow Fortunato's fate.

In the first option, symbolizing wasn't used in present tense but a simple mixing of present and past tense. The more appropriate form of the sentence would be "The catacombs was dark and cold which symbolized death." This would be a lot more understandable and it will not create confusion to the readers because of the inconsistency of the usage of tenses. The second option and the last option would be both in past tenses. The correct one is used in plural present form.
