#7. let x = the amount of money he borrows each day. so, the equation would be 8x (because it’s over 8 days, so 8 times x) = 28
so equation: 8x=28
then solve for x, which is 3.5 so $3.50
For c to be positive, and for b to be negative, m must be negative and n must be negative.
X^2 - bx + c = (x - m)(x - n).
c is the product of m and n. If both m and n are positive, c would be positive. However b is the sum of m and n, therefore to make b negative, both m and n must be negative to ensure that the product of m and n is positive
Are you asking to simplify all of those equations?
The amount of the element remaining (y) in grams after time (t) in minutes is defined by the equation y=970(1-.151)^t. Substitute t=14 into the equation and solve for y. y=970(.849)^14=98.06 rounded to two decimal places.
Hi there!
Let's start by replacing "a number" by the letter "x" so that we can do an equation and isolate "x" to find your answer :
(x - 
) + 
= -7
subtract on each side of the equation
x - = -8.25
add on each side of the equation
x = -7.5
-7.5 - 3/4 = -8.25
-8.25 + 5/4 = <u>-7</u>
So your answer is : Three-fourths was subtracted from -7.5, and then 5/4 was added to the result. The sum was -7.
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
