Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
As you might know, the two lines surrounding the -4 represent the absolute value, which is basically the distance from 0, and the distance is always positive. To clear any confusion, the absolute value of positive number will not be it's opposite because remember, distance is always positive, so absolute value is always positive (because it is basically the distance from zero).
To help, here is an example (that is not related to the problem!):
|-6| = 6
|6| = 6
<em>Now, back to the problem...</em>
Since you now know that the absolute value is always positive, |-4| would equal 4. So now you have:
4 - 8 + 10 = ???
From here, you can just solve and the answer is 6, so:
4 - 8 + 10 = 6
You final answer is 6.
Hope this helped somehow :D
The answer is 260. 260 times 36% is equal to 93.6
Answer:
49 blue marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are given;
- Total number of marbles = 58
- Blue marbles are 4 more than 5 times the red marbles
We need to determine the number of blue marbles;
Assuming the number of red marbles is x
Then, blue marbles will be 5x + 4
Therefore;
x + 5x + 4 = 58
6x + 4 = 58
6x = 54
x = 9
5x + 4 = 5(9) + 4 = 49
Therefore, the red marbles are 9 while the blue marbles are 49
Hence there are 49 blue marbles
I just guessed and it is 108
