This can be solver by creating a small equation with x being the number and solving for x. The equation would be 8 + 2( x + 3 ) = -6
Solve for x:
8 + 2( x + 3 ) = -6
Distribute the 2
8+ (2x+6)=-6
Subtract 8
2x+6= -14
Add 6
2x= 8
Divide by 2
x=4
So the number you are looking for is 4
I hope this helps!

K=2J-3
Hi Eli!
--------------------------------------
We Know:
1 1/2 cups of flour.
3/4 cup of white sugar.
1/8 cup of brown sugar.
--------------------------------------
Part A:
I can't use a number line answering this question but you can create one with the steps I tell you.
First find common denominators:
1 1/2 = 3/2 = 12/8
3/4 = 6/8
1/8
Create a number that goes from 0/8 to 12/8, which means put a number with 12, 1/8 plots on it. Then plot 12/8, 6/8, and 1/8 in order in the number line.
Find out the total number of cups used:
12/8 + 6/8 + 1/8 = 19/8
Simplify:
19/8 = 2 3/84
Part A Answer: There are <u>2 3/8 cups</u> used all together.
--------------------------------------
Part B:
Part B Answer: The <u>3 cup bowl</u> would work perfectly.
Why: The reason you would want to choose the 3 cup bowl is because it fits all the ingredients perfectly, the 3 cup bowl is greater than the 2 3/8 cups they used. You can't use 2 cups because it is less than the total cups of ingredients. The 4 bowl you could use but it is too big.

Answer:
fifth term
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an AP is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₃ = 4 and a₉ = - 8 , then
a₁ + 2d = 4 → (1)
a₁ + 8d = - 8 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2)
6d = - 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )
d = - 2
Substitute d = - 2 into (1)
a₁ + 2(- 2) = 4
a₁ - 4 = 4 ( add 4 to both sides )
a₁ = 8
Thus equating the n th term formula to zero and solving for n
8 - 2(n - 1) = 0 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
- 2(n - 1) = - 8 ( divide both sides by - 2
n - 1 = 4 ( add 1 to both sides )
n = 5
The fifth term is equal to zero
