I tried my best with 1, 2, and 3
8m+27= 2m-3
take 2m and subtract it from 8m, this gives you 6m. now your equation is 6m+27=-3.
subtract 27 from -3, this will make it 6m=-30.
divide 30 by 6. this gives you your answer. m=-5, because -30 divided by 6 equals -5.
now to test it you can plug -5 into the equation in place of M. 8 times -5 equals -40, plus 27 equals -13. 2 times -5 equals -10 plus -3 equals -13.
Answer:
196
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the largest share was 56 and the largest ratio is 14, then
56 ÷ 14 = 4 ← value of 1 part of the share, thus
8 parts = 8 × 4 = 32
6 parts = 6 × 4 = 24
9 parts = 9 × 4 = 36
14 parts = 14 × 4 = 56
12 parts = 12 × 4 = 48
Total the amounts
total = 32 + 24 + 36 + 56 + 48 = 196
Answer:
This is a 25% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
percent change = (old - new)/old * 100 %
The new price is 15
The old price is 20
Since the new price is less than the old price, it is a decrease
percent change = (20-15)/20 * 100 %
= 5/20 * 100%
=.25 * 100%
= 25%
This is a 25% decrease
Answer:
{-8,28}
Step-by-step explanation:
|10-x|=18
The absolute value has two solutions, one positive and one negative.
10-x = 18 and 10-x = -18
Subtract 10 from each side
10-10-x = 18-10 10-10-x=-18-10
-x = 8 -x = -28
Multiply each side by -1
x = -8 x = 28
