Answer: j = 38

Step-by-step explanation: First isolate j/-2 by subtracting

7 from both sides of the equation.

That gives you j/-2 = -19.

From here, since j is being divided by -2, multiply

both sides of the equation by -2 so <em>j = 38</em>.

Answer:

\huge\boxed{j=38}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{j}{-2}+7=-12\qquad\text{subtract 7 from both sides}\\\\\dfrac{j}{-2}+7-7=-12-7\\\\\dfrac{j}{-2}=-19\qquad\text{multiply both sides by (-2)}\\\\(-2)\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\diagup\cdot\dfrac{j}{-2\!\!\!\!\!\diagup}=(-2)(-19)\\\\j=38

Nimfa-mama [501]
If a customer ordered 5 items and the order had a total of 17 wheels, we are to determine the number of wagons that was ordered. A wagon has four wheels, therefore, 17 divided by 4 wheels is equal to 4 r. 1. So, 4 wagons were ordered and one extra wheel to complete the 17 wheels and 5 orders.

66.21 was rounded to 2dp. what is the lower bound?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

the answer is 66.205

Step-by-step explanation:

basically you look at the place value so

66.21 is basically the same as 66.210 then you look at the lowest number that can round UP to 66.210 which would be out of 1 to 9 would be 5 so the smallest number that can round up to 66.210 is 66.205 hope this helped :D

Can someone help me understand this question?
JulijaS [17]
Hey there! 

For Part A, because the amount earned on Sunday isn't specified, we can call this additional income x. Because we're writing an expression, we don't need an equal sign. The expression will be (x + 14). 

For Part B, "2 less than" will mean "– 2" and "twice than" will mean the amount of dogs that Alicia walked times 2. We can call the amount that Alicia walked y to avoid confusion with the last expression (though you could use whatever variable here) and your expression will be (2y – 2). 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
