Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have an ambiguous notation. Hence, I assume you mean (-12/((3 x (-8+ (-4)^2 -6) +2), which is the one that makes more sense.

First, we work the arithmetic on the denominator (D).

D= 3 x (-8 + (-4)^2 - 6) + 2

D=3 x (-8 + (-4) x (-4) -6) + 2

D= 3x (-8 +16 -6) + 2

D= 3 x (2) + 2=6 + 2=8

Now, we just have to divide -12 by D to obtain the answer.

-12/D = -12/8 =(-2 x 2 x 3)/(2 x 2 x 2) = -3/2

A guy walks into the store and steals $100 bill from the register without the owner’s knowledge. He comes back 5 minutes later a

Artemon [7]

The answer is $100
first the guy steals $100 from the owner. Therefore that $100 is a direct loss for the owner.
the same guy comes and pays $100 for goods worth $70. and the balance is paid back to the guy.
So the owner gets 100 and pays back 30 and gives goods worth 70. Therefore that transaction is cancelled as the amounts have been paid and no net effect with that transaction . the owner gets 70 for the goods he sold so that transaction wont lose his money. the fact that the guy paid for the bill with the money he stole isn't relevant here as the transaction has been completed
so the only loss for the owner is the $100 the guy stole at first
answer is $100

Helga [31]

The cost of each t-shirt is $7, using the equation formed from the given conditions.

In the question, we are given that the drama club is printing t-shirts for its members. The printing company charges a certain amount for each shirt plus a setup fee of $40.

We are aske to find the cost of each t-shirt if there are 21 students in the club and the t-shirt order costs a total of $187.

We assume the cost of one t-shirt to be $x.

Thus, the cost of printing 21 t-shirts = $21x.

The setup fee is given to be $40.

Thus, the total cost of printing 21 t-shirts for the dram club = $21x + 40.

But, we are given that the total cost is $187.

Thus, we get an equation,

21x + 40 = 187.

This equation can be solved as follows:

21x + 40 = 187,

or, 21x = 187 - 40,

or, 21x = 147,

or, x = 147/21,

or, x = 7.

Thus, the cost of each t-shirt is $7, using the equation formed from the given conditions.
