Answer: they lost 16 games
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Wins: x + 17
Losses: x
Ties: 3
Total: 52
Wins + Losses + Ties = Total
x + 17 + x + 3 = 52
2x + 20 = 52
2x = 32
x = 16
A. -3(-1) + 7 = 4
3 + 7 = 4
11 = 4 (wrong)
B. 4x - 8 = 12
4(-1) - 8 = 12
-4 - 8 = 12
-12 = 12 (wrong)
C. -2x + 3 = 1
-2(-1) + 3 = 1
2 + 3 = 1
5 = 1 (wrong)
D. 8x + 5 = -3
8(-1) + 5 = -3
-8 + 5 = -3
-3 = -3 (correct!)
So, in conclusion, D is the correct answer.
<span>N = number that must be inserted in the given numbers
to be divisible by 6
=> 3n
=> 85n
Now, let’s find a best number that will multiplied with both given number and
is divisible with 6.
=> 85n / 6
=> 85(6) / 6
=> 510 / 6
=>n = 6
now, let’s try to 3
=> 3(6) / 6
=> 18 / 6
=> 3
Thus, the value of N is 6 because it is divisible by 6 when multiplied to the
given number.

Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(-9 (-5) - 9)/(-12)
-9 (-5) = 45:
(45 - 9)/(-12)
| 3 | 15
| 4 | 5
- | | 9
| 3 | 6:
36/(-12)
The gcd of 36 and -12 is 12, so 36/(-12) = (12×3)/(12 (-1)) = 12/12×3/(-1) = 3/(-1):
3/(-1)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 3/(-1) by -1:
Answer: -3
Answer:
initial value is 15
growth factor is 1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given
The number of members f(x) in Joe's health club
increased by 25% every year over a period of x years
The function below shows the relationship between f(x) and x as
now, we can compare it with exponential function
where
a is the initial value
b is growth factor
we can compare and find 'a' and 'b'
So,
initial value is 15
growth factor is 1.25
we know that
x is time
so, it can never be negative
f(x) is number of chambers
so, f(x) can not be negative
now, we can draw graph
and we get as
