Every time you subtract 3 to get the next number. 88-3=85, -3=82, ... So, how many times do you need to subtract 3 from 88 to get to -17? That question can be answered by solving the expression (88-(-17))/3. The answer is 35. So, 35 terms appear before -17
1 out of 7. cause there are 7 socks and 1 black sock. nit sure tho
2.75+.003+.158=0
We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
2.75+.003+.158=0
We move all terms containing to the left and all other terms to the right.
0=0-2.75-0.003-0.158
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
0=-2.911
0=-2.911
The left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution. This equation is invalid.
