Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 is 0.33333... and then you just put a negative sign in front of it.
Answer:
X = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 12 + 9x = 72
okay hopefully i can explain so when your doing this combine like terms so
3x + 9x = 12x
12x + 12 = 72
then you would subtract both sides by 12
+12 = subtract x+12=2
- 12 = add x-12=2
there just flipped so in this case i would subtract 12
12x + ( 12-12) = ( 72-12 )
so 12-12 = 0 and 72-12 is equal to 60
12x = 60
the divide on both sides l but leave the x alone so its just 60 divided by 12 wich is 5
so X = 5
hope this helps with ur homework a little btw go back and redo ur other awnsers with this new concept hope it helps
Let t be the amount of trucks.
Thus 5t is the amount of cars.
t + 5t = 30
6t = 30
t = 30/6
t = 5
Therefore, there are 5 trucks
Answer:
C. The square root of a number, positive or negative, is always positive. However, the cube of a negative number is negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Of the choices offered, the one shown above is the only one that remotely makes any sense. Its description of square roots is erroneous, however.
The square root of a number n is the solution to the equation ...
x² = n
The function f(x) = x² has a range that only includes non-negative numbers, so the square root of a negative number does not exist. (Your answer choice says it is positive. It is actually non-existent among real numbers.)
On the other hand, the cube root of a number n is the solution to the equation ...
x³ = n
Since f(x) = x³ has a range that includes all real numbers, the cube root of n exists for all real numbers. (It is negative for negative values of n.)

<em>Comment on answer wording</em>
The answer wording would be correct if the word "root" were left out.
5k-3+9+k=180
6k+6=180
6k=174
k= 174/6= 29
2(180-2h)+40=180
360-4h=140
4h=360-140=220
h=55
