You can either convert -3 into a fraction, or convert -2/5 into a decimal so you can solve this.
If you decide to convert -3, into a fraction, it would be -3/1, and you'd have to multiply that by the reciprocal of -2/5.
So, you'd have -3/1(-5/2)=15/2, which can be simplified to 7 1/2.
If you decide to convert -2/5 into a decimal, you would get -0.4. You would then divide -3 by -0.4, which is equal to 7.5.
Both 7.5 and 7 1/2 are correct answers, and if you were to convert 7.5 into a fraction and 7 1/2 into a decimal, you would notice that they are the same number, but in different forms.
Answer:
1. 4x = 15
2. 4(n - 3) = 24
3. 2n + 5 = 13
4. (3/4)n = 9
5. 6x - 4 = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
this should be correct. hope this helps!
There are no numbers for this, thus you will have to use the quadratic formula.
Answer:
(a) 39,208
(b) 65%
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The car loses 10% the first year and 15% the second year so that’s 35% lost in total after two years.
35% of 60,320 is 21,112
60,320 - 21,112 = 39,208
39,208 ÷ 60,320 = 0.65 (65%)
