Answer:
n = -20
Step-by-step explanation:
-7 +
= -11
*multiply both sides by 5*
-35 + n = -55
*add 35 to each side*
n = -55 + 35
*calculate the sum*
n = -20
Answer:
8.8
Step-by-step explanation:
first you divide 28/7 (because there are 7 days in the week) you take that number, which is 4 and multiply it was 2.2 to convert the 4 kilograms into pounds.
The first thing that we want to do is simplify both side of this equation.
2(m-8).
The first thing we have to do, is multiple 2 by m and -8, also called distributing. So, when we do that, we get
2(m-8)=2*m + 2*-8 = 2m-16
4(m+6)
Now, we do the same thing we did for the first parenthesis, and that's multiple 4 by m and 6.
4(m+6)=4*m + 4*6 = 4m+24
Now, we need to get m by itself on one side. So, lets bring the equation from the right to the left
2m-16 = 4m + 24 (bring 4m to the other side by subtracting)
2m-16-4m = 24 (bring -16 to the right by adding)
-2m=24+16
-2m=40 (divide both sides by -2 to get your value for m)
m=40/-2 = -20
So, our answer is m = -20
In order to do this, we multiply both sides be the amount that would make the left side equal to 1. This number is the reciprocal of the fraction, so we multiply both sides by 3/2. This is equal to:
w = 9/8
So, the blueberries in crystal's basket will weigh 9/8 pounds when it is full.
