-3+8.
We know that the temperature /was/ -3, so it was 3 under zero. It has /risen/ by 8, meaning we have added 8 degrees to whatever the starting temperature was.
We can find out how much the temperature is right now: it was -3, went through -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and now its at 5 degrees. Thats risen by 8 degrees, right? And -3+8 is the same as 8-3 (commutative property of addition, since we basically did 8+(-3)) which equals 5, so we know that we got the correct answer. :)
Answer:
B. n-3
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is an even integer, the next consecutive even integer = x + 2
Since (n-5) is even, the next consecutive even integer = (n-5) + 2 = n-3
X=-39 answer
2/5x=-12
2x=-12(5)
2x=-60
X=-30
