You do add the two negatives and get a negative answer but -3 + -5 = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the mean. Step 2: Calculate how far away each data point is from the mean using positive distances. These are called absolute deviations. Step 3: Add those deviations together. Step 4: Divide the sum by the number of data points.
Simplify the equation.
First, distribute the 2 in the left side of the equation.
Resulting in: 2x-6 = (x-1) + 7
Second, remove the parentheses form the right side of the equation (there is nothing to distribute there).
Resulting in: x - 1 + 7
Now simplify the right side of the equation by subtracting the 1 from the 7.
Resulting in: x + 6
Our goal is to isolate the x to the left side, and the numerals to the right side.
With that in mind, add the 6 (from the right side) to both sides. This cancels out the 6 on the right side.
Resulting in: 2x = 12
Lastly, in order to fully isolate the variable (x), we divide both sides by 2.
Resulting in: x = 6
Hope this helps.
B=1/2
9/16=1/2b(3/4)
Divide both sides by 3/4
1/4=1\2b
Multiply both sides by 2
Answer:
12 divided by 4 is 3, this is how::
