Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms, perform the operations with the coefficients of the variable, then write the variable.
10r - 5r + 3r - 8r
= 5r + 3r - 8r
= 8r - 8r
= 0
1.Identify the fractions. Using the distributive property, you’ll eventually turn them into integers.
2.For all fractions, find the lowest common multiple (LCM) -- the smallest number that both denominators can fit neatly into. This will allow you to add fractions.
3.Multiply every term in the equation by the LCM.
4.Isolate variables adding or subtracting like terms on both sides of the equals sign.
5.Combine like terms.
6.Solve the equation and simplify, if needed.
Sorry this took so long! I managed to do everything except for the parts involving standard deviation. (I tried but I couldn't quite figure it out.)
~Hope this helps!~
1/4x - 10 = -50
1/4x = one forth of a number
-10 is decreased by 10
= -50 means is -50
