When you divide a negative integer by a negative, it becomes a positive. Also, when you have a problem like this...-18/-1/6, you switch the -1 and 6, leaving us -18/-6, but also, in the process of flipping the two numbers, we change to -18*-6. Henceforth...-18/(-1/6)=-18*-6=108.
Answer:
y = 5
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(2y) + 11y
-8y + 11y = 15
3y = 15
/ 3 /3
y = 5
x = 10
Answer:
$110
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a, b, and c represent the earnings of Alan, Bob, and Charles. The problem statement tells us ...
a + b + c = 480 . . . . . . the combined total of their earnings
-a + b = 40 . . . . . . . . . . Bob earned 40 more than Alan
2a - c = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . Charles earned twice as much as Alan
Adding the first and third equations, we get ...
(a + b + c) + (2a - c) = (480) + (0)
3a + b = 480
Subtracting the second equation gives ...
(3a +b) - (-a +b) = (480) -(40)
4a = 440 . . . . . . . . simplify
a = 110 . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of a
Alan earned $110.
_____
<em>Check</em>
Bob earned $40 more, so $150. Charles earned twice as much, so $220.
The total is then $110 +150 +220 = $480 . . . . as required
The values are x= -2 and x =4 of the given function f (x) =-5|x+1| +3
<h3>What is function?</h3>
Function is an expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).
According to the question,
The given function is

Here f(x) = -12
Substitute f(x) and solve for x

By subtracting 3 on both sides


By dividing -5 on both sides

We get absolute values for the function.

By subtracting 1 on both sides

Therefore, the values of x are 2 and - 4 of the given function f (x) =-5|x+1| +3

A number is prime if its only divisors are 1 and the number itself.
Out of your numbers, 36 and 38 are even, and thus divisible by 2, so they aren't prime.
Similarly, 35 ends with 5, so it's divisible by 5, and is not prime.
37 is divisible only by 1 and 37, and thus it's prime.
