Our current equation is:
-8r -31 = -3(5r -6)
To solve for this, we need to get r on one side of the equation and then simplify if needed.
On the right side of the equation, we have a pending Distributive Property, which is when you multiply the number/variable outside of the parenthesis by all numbers/variables in the parenthesis.
Let's simplify this Distributive Property to help understand our equation better.
-3(5r -6)
Multiply -3 by each number/variable separately (unless they are already being multiplied, like 2x, 1/2x, etc).
-3(5r) + -3(-6).
-3(5r) = -15r
-3(-6) = 18 (both negatives need to be in parenthesis to keep a product as negative, and if you do not multiply them in that way, you will end up with a positive product).
Your equation now is:
-8r -31 = -15r + 18
Add 15r to both sides to get r on one side.
7r -31 = 18 is now our current equation.
Add 31 to both sides to get 7r by itself.
7r = 49 is now our equation.
r is still being multiplied by 7, so we need to do the opposite of multiplying by 7.
Divide both sides by 7.
r = 7.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
It'll be -0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice how it is to the left of zero, anything to the left of zero is negative. With that in mind, we can eliminate A. The half mark between 0 and -1 represents 0.50, and since it goes by quarters, the E is at the first quarter, which is 0.25. Hopefully this helps!
Answer:
3/196
Step-by-step explanation:
because if 2 times 14 times 7, you will get 196 and then do 1 times 3 times 1 which equal to 3. so the answer will be 3/196
15 cards = 9$
1 card = (9/15)$
12 cards = 9/15 * 12
= 108/15
= 7.2$
