So we want to know when the cost of each is the same:
2.5m=7.5+m subtract m from both sides
1.5m=7.5 divide both sides by 1.5
m=5
So renting 5 movies costs the same from either store. ($12.50)
56 is 80% of 70.
70 x 0.80 = 56
To find the base number, divide 56 by 0.80:
56 / .8 = 56 / (8/10) = 56 x (10/8) = 560/8 = 70
Answer:
y=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
5(y+2/5)=-13
5y+10/5=-13
5y+2=-13
5y=-15
y=-3
Check:
5(-3+2/5)=-13
-15+2=-13
-13=-13
if he originally went down 22 ft, but then came back up 11 feet, 22-11=11, he swam back down 13ft ( 11+13)=24 ft.
Answer:
Option C is the only correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see from the number line that a is to the left of zero, so it is negative. This means option A is incorrect.
Since b is to the left of zero, b is also negative. This means that -b is positive. Since c is to the left of zero, c is negative. Therefore, option B is incorrect: a negative number can never be greater than a positive number.
We see from the number line that a is less than c. Since both a and c are negative, this implies that -a > -c. Therefore, option C is correct.
