Given:
In a number, adding
, then multiplying the result by
we get 8.
To find:
The unknown number.
Solution:
Let the unknown number be x.
According to the question,




Multiply both sides by
.


Subtract
from both sides.




Therefore, the required number is
.
That would be 12
12 times -8 = -96!
:) Have a nice day and maybe consider grading this answer brainliest? <3
It is B.
You see that the line segment crosses the y-axis at 1? That is known as the y intercept.
Remember y = mx + b?
Well in this graph, b = 1
Therefore it is B
Answer: (C) divide by 1
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
when dividing by x - 1, set the expression equal to zero to find the zero. That is actually what you are dividing by:
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
so the number outside of the synthetic division symbol is 1.
The answer is D. It does not satisfy the second equation because 0 is not greater than 1.
