Answer: Choice A) The number that is 5 to the left of -3 on the number line.
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below. The value -3 is 3 units to the left of 0 on the number line. So you start at 0 and move 3 spaces to the left to arrive at -3.
Once you're at -3 on the number line, you'll move 5 more spaces to the left to arrive at -8
We can think of -3+(-5) as -3-5, both of which simplify to -8
Or we can think of it like saying -3+(-5) = -1*(3+5) = -1*8 = -8. Here I factored out a negative 1, and then added. The final result is negative since we're moving to the left in the negative territory.
Answer:
x = -16
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/3 * 9x = -3x
-1/3 * 30 = -10
-10 + 2 = -8
40 = -3x - 8
+8 +8
48 = -3x

-3 -3
-16 = x
x = -16
