To solve each question, all you've got to do is add the two numbers together and then graph the result on the number line.
1.) -3 +(-1.5)
Add 3 to -1.5. It would be the same as subtracting 1.5 from -3(-3 - 1.5)
Final Answer: -4.5<span>
Or, since you are using a number line, start on -3 and go left 1.5 units and you will land on the -4.5 point. You go to the left because you are adding a negative number..
</span>
2.) 1.5+3.5
Add<span>
Final Answer: 5
</span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on 1.5 and go to the right 3.5 and you will land on 5. You go to the right because you are adding a positive number.<span>
</span>3.) 1/4 + 1/2
Multiply 1/2 by 2 to make both fractions have the same denominator
1/4 + 2/4
Add<span>
Final Answer: 3/4
</span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on 1/4 and go up 2/4 and you will land on 3/4 as the result.<span>
</span>4.) -1 1/2 + (-1 1/2)
Add -1 1/2 to -1 1/2. This would be the same as subtracting 1 1/2 from -1 1/2(-1 1/2 - 1 1/2)<span>
Final Answer: -3
</span><span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on -1 1/2 and go to the left 1 1/2 and you will land on the -3 point.</span>

Answer:
1 solution (x = -36 2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
6 + x/5 = x/5 - 5 - 3x/10 . . . . . . . given
60 +2x = 2x -50 -3x . . . . . . . . . multiply by 10
3x = -110 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add x-60 to both sides
x = -110/3 = -36 2/3 . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
There is one solution to the equation.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The coefficient of x on the left side of the equation is not equal to the coefficient of x on the right side. When that is the case, the equation will have one solution.
When the coefficients are equal, there will be no solutions if the constants are different, and there will be infinite solutions if the constants are the same.
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
move the 3 to the 12 and change it from pos to neg so 12-3=9
