Answer:
a = -2
Simplifying 5 + -2(4a + 1) + 3a = 13 Reorder the terms: 5 + -2(1 + 4a) + 3a = 13 5 + (1 * -2 + 4a * -2) + 3a = 13 5 + (-2 + -8a) + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: 5 + -2 = 3 3 + -8a + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: -8a + 3a = -5a 3 + -5a = 13 Solving 3 + -5a = 13 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + -5a = 13 + -3 -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 13 + -3 = 10 -5a = 10 Divide each side by '-5'. a = -2
We are given that 8 oz of milk requires 15 oz of flour.
To know the amount of flour needed for 15 oz of milk, we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:
amount of flour needed = (15*15) / (8) = 28.125 oz
So to solve for y, subtract 108 from each side.
The equation becomes -y=126
Since you don't want y to be negative then divide each side by -1 this will flip all of the signs (positives become negative and vice versa) without changing the number.
So the equation is now y= -126
Answer:
The correct answer is no.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a number is a factor of another number, that means that it can be equally divided into it <em>evenly</em>.
I know that 3 x 20 = 60, and 73 - 60 = 13.
Since 3 is <em>not</em> a factor of 13, it is also <em>not</em> a factor of 73.
Hope this helps! :D
