Then the days started getting colder and people started staying in more- meaning the demand for gas dropped. This eventually it stopped decreasing and stayed like this for a bit until a hurricane is spotted and weather people say it is likely to hit the coast where this gas chart is being charted. The gas prices start increasing, at first its slow as the hurricane gets closer- and it just keeps increasing as people become more and more sure it is going to hit them and they want to evacuate.
-3x + 7x = -12
You need to add like terms.
4x = -12
Then, you need to divide both side by 4.
x = -3
So the answer is:
A) x = -3
The ski jacket costs $160 and the pants cost $70 because if u do 160-20=140 which, if u divid by 2, will give you 70
The answer is $230
It's 100 because 1000/10 = 1000
