Hi there!
Let's start by replacing "a number" by the letter "x" so that we can do an equation and isolate "x" to find your answer :
(x - 
) + 
= -7
subtract on each side of the equation
x - = -8.25
add on each side of the equation
x = -7.5
-7.5 - 3/4 = -8.25
-8.25 + 5/4 = <u>-7</u>
So your answer is : Three-fourths was subtracted from -7.5, and then 5/4 was added to the result. The sum was -7.
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
The answers would be A D and E because if you were to flip them onto each other they would be the exact same
2x-8=2x+6+x first put all the like terms together
2x-8=3x+6 subtract 2s from both sides
-8=x+6 subtract 6 from both sides
-14=x then it is your final answer!
Hope this helps! Please give me the brainliest answer if you like it! If you have further questions, please leave a comment or add me as a friend!
Answer:
3/83
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability: the ways to get the desired result / all of the possible results.
To solve, plug in the values they give.
There are 6 packages of wild-caught shrimp from Honduras. (The desired result)
Now, to find all of the possible results, add the total number of packages together.
27 + 40 + 52 + 13 + 6 + 28 = 166
6/166 = 3/83
Thus, the answer is a 3/83 chance of getting a package of wild-caught shrimp came from Honduras.
Answer:
2094.5 muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is a little bit messy, but i’m guessing you meant that the elf ate 35% of the muffins, which 35% is 710 muffins. so since 35% of muffins is 710 muffins, let’s multiply that by 2 so we can get 70%.
so 710 x 2 is 1420. so 70% of the muffins is 1420 muffins! sadly that’s not all of the muffins. we’re still missing another 30%. since we don’t know how many muffins are in 30%, let’s just take 710 muffins - 5%. when you do that you get 674.5. so now that we know how much is in 30%, let’s take 1420 + 674.5. when you do that you get 2094.5! so you started off with 2094 and a half muffins!
