Solve for x. x-8=-20

Mathematics
1 answer:
NeX [460]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

x - 8 = -20

Simply add +8 to both sides of the equation.

It becomes :

x - 8 +8 = -20 + 8

Note that, -8 + 8 will cancel out, and results to zero.

Therefore the equation becomes :

x = -20 + 8

x = -12.

Hope this helped!

Nora bought 100 Shares of a technology stock and 200 shares of a mutual fund for $3500. Her sister, Erin, bought 300 shares of t
viktelen [127]

Answer:Suppose the cost stock is x and the cost of fund is y.

Total cost of Nora's portfolio:

100x+200y=3800.....i

Total cost of Erin's portfolio

300x+50y=5350...ii

solving the simultaneous equation by elimination method we proceed as follows:

multiplying eqn  by 3 and subtracting ii we get:

550y=6050

thus

y=6050/550

y=11

next, multiply ii by 4 and subtracting i we get:

1100x=17600

x=16

thus the cost of Technology stock was $16 and the cost of mutual fund was $11

A pipe can fill a tank in 120 minutes while the drain can drain it in 150 minutes. If the drain is left open and the fill pipe i
kupik [55]

Answer:

600 minutes or 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem by looking at the net increase per minute. To find this, we can set rates for each value.

The pipe will be able to fill 1/120 of the tank in a minute, and the drain will drain 1/150 in a minute. So subtract the two:

1/120 - 1/150 = 1/600 of the tank per minute

Therefore you need 600 minutes to fill the tank, or 10 hours.
