10= -4 + x x=14 because you do the opposite of the sign you see in this case its a plus sign so you subtract -4 from ten and since the 4 is a negative and your subtracting you would add 4 I know this probably didn't help it sounds really confusing but I have hope that it did :)

Answer:
30 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The enclosing rectangle is 4 by 10, so has a perimeter of ...
P = 2(L+W) = 2(10+4) = 28
The notch adds 2 inches to the perimeter, so the total of all side lengths is ...
28 +2 = 30 . . . inches
The total number of cups of sugar needed will be given by:
Total amount=(number of bottles)×(number of cups of sugar per box)
number of bottles to be made is 5 bottles
number of cups per box is 3/4
thus the total number of cups required will be:
Total amount=3/4×5=3 3/4 cups
Answer: -8
Explanation: If g(x) = x² + 2x - 8, then g(-2) = (-2)² + 2(-2) - 8
which simplifies to 4 + (-4) - 8 or 0 - 8 which is -8.
Remember to always use parentheses when
substituting your given value in for <em>x</em>.
Answer:
b=5
Step-by-step explanation:
−4+bx=2x+3(x+1) (expand parenthesis first, i.e PEDMAS)
−4 + bx = 2x + 3x + 3
−4 + bx = 5x + 3 (move all x terms to one side and constants to another)
5x - bx = - 4 -3
5x - bx = - 7 (factor out x)
(5 - b)x = - 7
x = -7 / (5-b)
we can see that 5-b is in the denominator. Recall that for a fraction, the denominator cannot be zero otherwise the expression is undefined. (i.e no solutions)
hence the expression is undefined if,
(5-b) = 0
or b = 5
