Because they have lettters the (p's) go together which is -6p and then you have the +15 left so you add that on the end , your answer is -6p + 15
Absolute value is always positive, it is the distance from 0
Answer:
the percent increase is by 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
30% of 200 equals 60
First step
5.(2x-8)
= (5.2x) + (5. (-8) )
=10x + (-45)
note :(+) . (-) = (-)
so + (-45)= (-45)
Add 15 to this equation
= 10x -40 +15= -15
=10x -25= -15
Leave x alone and make it positive
By the way, if you put (-25) in the right term, this number's notation (I mean -) will change
Namely
= 10x= (-15)+25
=10x= 10
x=1
Hope it helps :)
P.s. I dont know mathematical terms that's why i couldn't explain it properly but i tried to help as far as i can :)
