The answer to the question is -1
Easy divide the $ by the yards then multiply the number of $ to the amount needed ;D
Answer: -185 (choice D)
=========================================================
Explanation:
- x = first integer
- x+1 = second integer
Note how x+1 follows immediately after x. That's what "consecutive" means by definition. An example of consecutive integers would be 7,8,9,10.
Adding those two said integers will lead to -371
first+second = -371
x+(x+1) = -371
2x+1 = -371
2x = -371-1
2x = -372
x = -372/2
x = -186
x+1 = -186+1 = -185
Note how -186+(-185) = -371 to confirm the answer.
The two consecutive integers that add to -371 are -186, -185. The larger of the two is -185 since it's more to the right on the number line.
Answer:
8
Reasoning:
-4 times 8 equal -32
therefore -32/-4 is equal to 8
I hope this helps you with your algebra
In order to add the fractions, we need to create complex fractions with a Least Common Denominator (LCD).
The LCD between 9 and 2 is 18
3 1/2 = 3(18/18) + 9/18 = 54/18 + 9/18 = 63/18
3/9 = 6/18
So now we can solve...
3 1/2 + 3/9 is the same as 63/18 + 6/18 = 69/18 = 3 5/6 which is none of the given answers.
