A quotient is the result of a division.
Let the unknown number be x.
We translate the problem into an equation, piece by piece.
<span>"quotient of a number and seven" ----> x/7
</span>
<span>"12 less than the quotient of a number and seven" ----> x/7 - 12
The word "is" means "="
x/7 - 12 =
All the above is -2, so it equals -2.
x/7 - 12 = -2

First, add 12 to both sides and simplify.

Next, multiply both sides by 7.

Answer: The number is 70.
The first thing we do in these cases is to define the variables.
We have then:
w = represent the number of acres of wheat
c = represent the number of acres of corn
We write now the inequalities based is:
"Jess will plant up to 27 acres on her farm with wheat and corn"
w + c <= 27
"More than 5 acres will be planted with wheat"
w> 5
Answer:
two inequalities that represent this situation are:
w + c <= 27
w> 5
Carbon Dioxide: o2c
Water: h2o
Oxygen: o2
Water is h2o because there are 2 hydrogen molecules and 1 oxygen molecule.
h2 = 2 hydrogen molecules
o = 1 oxygen molecule

Answer:</h2>
The answer is 16.
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Since the 8x is positive, the equation must have y as a positive number.
Let's see this!
An easy way to complete the square if you have the constants for x2 and
But not the non-variable number is to divide the x constant, and then square it.
Example:

The last number must be 16. Let's check it.
