Complete question :
There are 575 fireworks to be shot off in a firework display every minute 12 new fireworks are shot off display write a verbal model and algebraic expression to represent the number of fireworks left to be shot off after t minutes.
Answer:
575 - 12t
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Total number of fireworks = 575
Number of shots per minute = 12
To calculate the number of fireworks left to be shot off after t minutes, The total number of fireworks already shot after the same time interval t in minutes, is first obtained, this is equivalent to (12*t). The result is then subtracted from the total number of fireworks to be shof off.
In algebraic terms
[total number of fireworks on display - (number of shots per minute × t)]
575 - 12t

Answer:
It would be True
Step-by-step explanation:
2+5x = -8
SUBTACT 2 on both sides and it would look like this:
5x = -8 - (2)
5X= -10
then DIVIDE 5 both side to get "X" ALONE,
x= -10/5
then divide -10 with 5
equal to:
x = -2
