If 5x=-20 then it would be
- 20 + 2 - 2 =  - 18 - 2
adding 2 and subtracting 2 they cancel out so its
- 20 =  - 18 - 2
and if you subtract 2 from negative 18 it is negative 20 so it is true

Cancel −2 on both sides

5x+2=−18

Subtract 2 from both sides

5x=−18−2

Simplify −18 −2 to −20

5x=−20

divide both sides by 5

x=−20/5

simplify 20/5 to 4

x=−4

500 portions of strawberries have been ordered for the tournament, but because of bad weather only
Citrus2011 [14]

We conclude that 375 portions can be sold.

<h3>How many portions can be sold?</h3>

We know that 500 portions have been ordered, but only 5/6 of that was delivered, so the number of delivered portions is:

p = (5/6)*500 = 416.6

Which we can round to the next whole number, 417.

Now we know that 10% of these are given to the players and staff, then the number of portions that can be sold is the 90% of 417, which is:

N = 417*(90%/100%) = 417*0.9 = 375

We conclude that 375 portions can be sold.

Explain the following terms: positive slope, negative slope, x-intercept, y-intercept &lt;&lt; Read Less
garik1379 [7]
Hello there!

A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.

A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.

The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.

The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.

I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
