<span>C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93
C = -24
Let's use the variable C to represent the change in the balance in Cody's checking account. The easiest way to make the expression is to simply apply the additions and subtractions directly. So let's start with C
C
"Cody made deposits of $45, $18, and $27 into his checking account."
C = 45 + 18 + 27
"He then wrote checks for $21 and $93."
C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93
So the expression to represent the change to Cody's checking account is
C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93
Now to simplify it. All you need to do is combine terms together. How far you go is up to you. So let's do it.
C = 45 + 18 + 27 - 21 - 93
I'll add together all the deposits.
C = (45 + 18 + 27) - 21 - 93
C = 90 - 21 - 93
And I'll combine the checks.
C = 90 - 114
So now you can tell at a glance that Cody deposited $90 and wrote checks for $114. But we can make it simpler and combine those as well. So
C = -24
And this tells you that Cody's checking account balance is now $24 lower than it was before he started making deposits and writing checks.</span>
Answer:
35 - m
Step-by-step explanation:
A tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of gallon per minute.
"m" represents the number of minutes spent
Number of gallons left in the tank = initial amount of water present – leaked amount of water
Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – number of minutes spent rate of leakage.
Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – m minutes 1 gallons per minute
Answer:
28 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
68 = 2m + 12

m = 28 degrees
Answer:
1: 7/10
2: 3/10
3: 4/8 (2/4 or 1/2 if you need to simplify it)
Step-by-step explanation:
1: Convert 2/5 to tenths by multiplying the denominator and numerator by two. 3/10 plus 4/10 is 7/10
2: Convert 4/5 and 1/2 to tenths.
4/5 is going to be 8/10, 1/2 is going to be 5/10.
Subtract 5/10 from 8/10 to get 3/10
3: Convert 1/4 to eighths to get 2/8. Then add 2/8 and 2/8 to get 4/8.
