First do distrubutive property
-(x+4)=-8
Multiply the parenthesis by the invisible -1 in the front
: -x-4=-8
Now add 4 to both sides
-x=-4
then divide -1 by both sides
x=4 is your answer
Answer:
a = 28 / √2
Step-by-step explanation:
Isosceles triangle therefor a = b
use pythagorean theorem
a² + a² = c²
2a² = 28²
a² = 28² / 2
Take the square root of both sides
a = 28 / √2
Answer:
There are 24 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of nickels
Let y represent the number of quarters
—————————————————————
Value Value
Type Number of of
of of each all
Coin Coin Coin Coin
—————————————————————
Nickels | x | $0.05 | $0.05x
Quarters | y | $0.25 | $0.25y
—————————————————————
Totals 28 ——— $2.20
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The first equation comes from the “Number of coins” column.
(Number of nickels) + (Number of quarters) = (total number of coins)
Equation: x + y = 28
—————————————————————
The second equation comes from the “value of all coins” column.
(Value of all nickels) + (Value of all quarters) = (Total value of all coins)
0.05x + 0.25y = 2.20
Remove the decimals by multiplying each term by 100:
5x + 25y = 220
—————————————————————
So we have the system of equations:
{x + y = 28
{5x + 25y = 202
Solve by substitution. Solve the first equation for y:
x + y = 28
y = 28 - x
Substitute (28 - x) for y in 5x + 25y = 220
5x + 25 (28 - x) = 220
5x + 700 - 25x = 220
-20x + 700 = 220
-20x = -480
x = 24
The number of nickels is 24.
————————————————————
Substitute in y = 28 - x
y = 28 - (24)
y = 4
The number of quarters is 4.
————————————————————
Checking:
24 nickels is $1.20 and 4 quarters is $1.00
That’s 28 coins.
Indeed $1.20 + $1.00 = $2.20

Answer:
C. Always become smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
As the demand curve slopes downwards, it implies there's a decrease in quantity demanded as price percentages increases, therefore, price elasticity of demand becomes smaller.
