Answer:
x = -33
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the midpoint add the two points and divide by 2
(x+27)/2 = -3
Multiply each side by 2
(x+27)/2 *2= -3*2
x+27 = -6
Subtract 27 from each side
x+27-27 = -6 -27
x = -33
Answer:
carbon footprint
7.7 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
carbon dioxide produced by a car over 7 year period = 53.5 tons
To find,
carbon footprint <em>(tons of carbon dioxide per year)</em>
7 years ------> 53.5 tons
1 year -------> 53.9/7 tons
= 7.7 tons
tons of carbon dioxide produced per year = 7.7
Answer:
I am guessing about 150 - 200 students did not buy a yearbook.
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's assume that there are 1,000 or so students in the school. 856 would be a little over 4/5 of 1,000 just as 8 would be 4/5 of 10.
Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, (x+2), and (x+4).
(x + (x + 2) + (x + 4)) - 10 = -22 Get rid of the parentheses
x + x + 2 + x + 4 - 10 = -22 Combine like terms (x + x + x) and (2 + 4 - 10)
3x - 4 = -22 Add 4 to both sides
3x = -18 Divide
x = -6
Check you work.
x = -6
x + 2 = -4
x + 4 = -2
(-6 - 4 - 2) - 10 = 22
-12 - 10 = -22
So, your three integers are -6, -4, and -2 .
Answer:
x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1-3x = x+3
Add 3x to each side
1-3x+3x = x+3x+3
1 = 4x+3
Subtract 3 from each side
1-3 = 4x+3-3
-2 = 4x
Divide each side by 4
-2/4 = 4x/4
-1/2 =x
