11) 7 + -10+(4(5+-3)) = 7+-10+8=5

12) (12 +-10)+3x+-1(2x+4x), 12+-10x+3x+-2x+-4x = 12+-13x

11. According to the Order of Operations, you start with the inner brackets and work outward. Then, finally, you do the sum left to right.

... 7 + (-10) +(4(5 -3))

... = 7 + (-10) +4(2)

... = 7 + (-10) + 8

... = -3 + 8

... = 5

12. (12 -10x) +3x -(2x +4x)

... = (12 -10x) +3x -6x . . . . . . combine terms inside parentheses

... = 12 - 10x + 3x - 6x . . . . . terms inside the left parentheses cannot be combined

... = 12 -7x -6x . . . . . . . . . . . here, we're combining terms left to right. Of course like terms can be added in any order you may desire, as long as you pay attention to signs. It is sometimes convenient to add all the positve terms, add all the negative terms, then find the sum of those. -10x +3x -6x = 3x -(10x +6x) = 3x -16x = -13x.

... = 12 -13x

Gabrielle is 3 times older than mikhail. the sum of their ages is 80. how old is mikhail

skelet666 [1.2K]

The sum of their ages equals 80.
Gabrielle is 3 times older than Mikhail

Two numbers that have a sum of 80, with one number being 3 times the other are:
Gabrielle’s age: 60
Mikhail’s age: 20

60 + 20 = 80
20 x 3 = 60

Mikhail is 20 years old.

What is the ratio of x to y?

abruzzese [7]

$\frac{3}{2} = \frac{2x}{2x+y}$

From any proportion, we get another proportion by inverting the extremes (or the means):

$\frac{2x+y}{2} = \frac{2x}{3}$ = k

so we have:

2x=3k
2x+y=2k therefore:
3k+y=2k
y= - k

x= $\frac{3}{2} k$

$\frac{x}{y}$ = - $\frac{3}{2}$

The corect answer is A. -3/2

or:

$\frac{3}{2} = \frac{2x}{2x+y}$

From any proportion, we get another proportion by inverting the extremes and the means:

$\frac{2x+y}{2x} = \frac{2}{3}$

We use a property of proportions:

$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}$ where a, d are extremes and b,c are means and the product of the extremes equals the product of the means (a*d=b*c),

so we have

$\frac{a-b}{b} = \frac{c-d}{d}$ or

$\frac{a+b}{b} = \frac{c+d}{d}$ (you can check this also by "the product of the extremes equals the product of the means")

$\frac{2x+y}{2x} = \frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{(2x+y)-2x}{2x} = \frac{2-3}{3}$

$\frac{y}{2x} = \frac{-1}{3}$

3y = - 2x

$\frac{x}{y} = -\frac{3}{2}$
