When the number is positive, its opposite is less than the number.
9 ==> -9 . . . . . . less
72 ==> -72 . . . . less
324 ==> -324 . . less
When the number is negative, its opposite is greater than the number.
-8 ==> 8 . . . . . . greater
-3/4 ==> 3/4 . . . greater
-429 ==> 429 . . greater .
We've seen that the opposite can be less, and it can also be greater.
I guess that means that it's sometimes greater.
Answer:
1/4(1 - 3x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out expression
1/4 - 3/4x
Step 2: Factor out GCF
1/4(1 - 3x)
1) 1/5 (x-25) = 7
1/5x - 5 = 7
Add five to both sides
1/5x = 12
Divide both sides by 1/5
x = 60
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of quantities in direct proportion is of the form
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality
The only equation in this form is y = 3x → B
