Hi there!
Let's start by replacing "a number" by the letter "x" so that we can do an equation and isolate "x" to find your answer :
(x - 
) + 
= -7
subtract on each side of the equation
x - = -8.25
add on each side of the equation
x = -7.5
-7.5 - 3/4 = -8.25
-8.25 + 5/4 = <u>-7</u>
So your answer is : Three-fourths was subtracted from -7.5, and then 5/4 was added to the result. The sum was -7.
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Answer:
13.
parallel: y = 1/3x -3
perpendicular: y = -3x - 3
14.
parallel: y = 4x - 1/2
perpendicular: y = -1/4x - 1/2
15.
parallel: y = -2x + 4
perpendicular: y= 1/2x + 4
16.
parallel: y = -2x-2
perpendicular: y= 1/2x-2
17.
parallel: y = -2x+8
perpendicular: y= 1/2x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
A perpendicular has a negative reciprocal slope and a parallel has the same slope
Answer:
16 year olds had the higher ratio of black belts to brown belts.
Step-by-step explanation:
15 year olds: 8/28 students had black belts
8/28 = 28.6% had black belts
16 year olds: 10/27 students had bald belts
10/27 = 37.0% had black belts
