Silver for x
-3 - (-8) - (-2) = x
Switch the equation to make x on the right
x = -3 - (-8) - (-2)
x = 5 - (-2)
x = 7
• A negative minus a negative will always evaluate to a positive.
• A positive minus a negative will always evaluate to a positive.
Answer:
So any time you are multiplying something, you are making "groups of"
so 3 groups of 2 = 6, 4 groups of 3 = 12
But with decimals or fractions, because they are a value less than zero, the numbers become increasingly small instead of bigger, like standard multiplication.
So for example, 1 group of 1/2 = 1/2
2 groups of 1/4 = 1/2
and so on
hope this helps!
Answer:
x= 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
4x−2=2x
Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.
4x−2−2x=2x−2x
2x−2=0
Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.
2x−2+2=0+2
2x=2
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x
2
=
2
2
x=1
Answer: Choice A
y + 1 = -3(x+2)
=============================
Explanation:
Let's look through the answer choices.
Choices C and D show that the point (2,1) is on the line. But the graph does not show this. So we can rule out choices C and D.
With choice A, the slope is negative and choice B has a positive slope.
The answer must be choice A because the line is going downhill as we move from left to right.
--------------
A common method is to pick two points on the line and compute the slope using the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Once you know the slope, you would use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
ANSWER: M(-9,-4) to M’(-5,2)
If (x,y) is to (x+4,y+6)
Then (-9,-4) is to (-9+4,-4+6)
Hence (-9,-4) is to M’(-5,2)
Hopefully it’s correct
