Answer:

Achmed has 7 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Achmed have x pencils, then:

Gloria has 2x pencils and  Peng has 3x pencils so we have the equation:

x + 2x + 3x  = 42

6x = 42

x = 7.

Achmed has 7 pencils.

Can someone please teach me how to add, subtract, multiply and divide negative numbers?

If both numbers are negative u add those up and ur answer will be a negative. so number one is negative 9.
if there is more positive ur answer will be a positive. so number 2 is 13.
number is more complicated so negative 3 +4 is 1 because u have more positive and u just subtract those then 1 minus 8 equals negative 7 and negative 7 minus 7 is 0. hope this helps

6x²-13x=-6<br> Solve the equation using the quadratic formula
nalin [4]

Answer:

x=2/3, x=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

6x^2-13x=-6

6x^2-13x+6=0

6x^2-4x-9x+6=0

2x*(3x-2)-3(3x-2)=0

(3x-2)8(2x-3)=0

3x-2=0

2x-3=0

x=2/3

x=3/2
