Answer:

It depends on how you interpret the statement.

( x * -7 ) + ( 5 - 2 )

x * ( -7 + 5 ) - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

"a number times negative seven added to five equals two"

Let's set x as our number.

So the statement would translate to:

x * -7 + 5 - 2

To simplify, we might try to organize things by adding some parentheses. But that's when things start to get a little.....dicey.

Depending on how you interpret the original statement, both (x*-7)+5-2 and x*(-7+5)-2 can satisfy the statement.

Herein lies our problem. Which of the two expressions is correct?

Well.....both of them, actually. It just depends on how you're interpreting the statement and what options you have available.

If you can only pick one, but all of the expressions are possible options, then you're kind of stuck.

Answer:

  • 6 units left and 4 up (if figure K translated)
  • 6 units right and 4 units down (if figure J translated)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>It is not clear which of the figures is translated.</em>

<em>Assume it is figure K.</em>

Use one of the points and compare the corresponding point.

<u>If you take bottom-left point, then the difference is coordinates is:</u>

  • -7 - (-1) = -6, this is translation left by 6 units (or right if the figure J is translated)
  • 2 - (-2) = 4, this is translation up by 4 units (or down if the figure J is translated)

<u>So the answer is </u>

  • 6 units left and 4 up or, (figure K translated)
  • 6 units right and 4 units down (figure J translated)
