How do you solve and check x/4 = -5

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mashutka [201]3 years ago
6 0

Rearrange x/4-(-5)=0

Simplify x/4

-5 = -5/1 = -5*4/4

x- (-5*4)/4 = x+20/4

x+ 20/4 = 0

x+20/4 * 4 = 0*4

The equation now takes the shape: x+20=0

subtract 20 from both sides of the equation: x=-20

Answer: x=-20

Avicenna, a major insurance company, offers five-year life insurance policies to 65-year-olds. If the holder of one of these pol
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Avicenna can expect to lose money from offering these policies. In the long run, they should expect to lose ___33__ dollars on each policy sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The amount the company Avicenna must pay to the shareholder if the person die before 70 years = $ 26,500

The value of each policy = $497

It is given that there is a 2% chance that people will die before 70 years and 98% chance that people will live till the age 70.

The expected policy to be sold= policy nominal + chances of death

                                      = 497 + [98% (no pay) + 2% (pay)]

                                     = 497 + [98%(0) + 2%(-26500)]

(The negative sign shows that money goes out of the company)

                                   = 497 - 2% (26500)

                                  = 497 - 530

                                  =33

Therefore the company loses 33 dollar on each policy sold in the long run.

Solve the system of equations using elimination. SHOW WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
irinina [24]

q= 6

r= 7

work--

Multiply 1st column by -2:

-30q+8r=-124

5q+8r=86

Subtract 2nd column from the first column:

-35q= -210

Solve for q:

q=6

Subtract q=6 by any of the two equations, so:

-30q+8r=-124

-30*6+8r=-124

Solve for r:

r=7
