Answer:
6 not 5
Step-by-step explanation:
So you first add 17 to both sides to cancel it out. Then you have -12x = -72. You then divide the 72 by 12 which is 6. The right answer is 6, not 5. nd double negatives thats why I said 72 / 12, instead of -72 / -12
M = 57+46
(Since she has 46 less then martha, you know to find how many martha has you have to add 46!)
M=103
So martha has 103 coins!
Answer:
<em>I disagree with both solutions. The value of b that will make the expression correct is -30</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation solved my Mai and Tyler expressed as:
2/5 b + 1 = -11
We are to check the veracity of the solutions;
2/5 b + 1 = -11
Subtract 1 from both sides of the expression
2/5 b + 1 -1 = -11-1
2/5 b = -12
Cross multiply
2b = -12 * 5
2b = -60
Divide both sides by 2
2b/2 = -60/2
b = -30
<em>Since the solution b = -25 and -28 does not tally with the gotten solution, I disagree with the both solutions</em>
