So,
"The sum of five times a number and -6"
5n + -6 or 5n - 6
"is -2"
= -2
5n - 6 = -2
Add 6 to both sides.
5n = 4
Divide both sides by 5.
This is my interpretation of the questions answer. If you are thinking of a design ten just make a snake one. Its simple but not hard.
The answer is ERROR i tried it by hand and by calculator and both answers ended up as ERROR
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of apples that Nicole bought was 6 pounds.
Each pound of apple cost $1.50
This means that the total cost of the 6 pounds of apple that Nicole bought would be
6 × 1.5 = $9
The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. This means that the amount that was paid is
9 - 2 = $7
If Nicole and her friend then divided the cost of the purchase evenly, let x represent the amount that each of them would pay. Therefore, the expression that can be used to determine how much Nicole and her friend each paid for the apples would be
x = 7/2
