Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let one no. be 'x'.

the other no. is (x+2)

therefore the eq. is:

x+x+2= -68

2x+2= -68

2x = -68-2

= -70

x= -70/2

= -35

one number is -35

other number is (x+2) = -35 + 2

= -33

Graph the linear equation -4y=-5x-18

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The graph intersect the y-axis at (0,4.5)

The graph intersect the x-axis at (-3.6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is;

-4y=-5x-18

Dived every term by -4

$\frac{-4y}{-4} =\frac{-5x}{-4} -\frac{18}{-4} \\\\\\y=\frac{5}{4}x+\frac{9}{2}$

plot using a graph tool to view the liner graph as below

Find the solution set. |x| = -16 { } {-4, 4} {-16, 16} {-32, 32}

Otrada [13]

This an { } solution because the absolute value is always a positive number unless there is a negative sign in front of the brackets.

hope this helps :)

Decide if the expression is positive or negative. Explain in words how you know, please.

AysviL [449]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first expression is :

$-11\times \dfrac{2}{3}$

Numerator = -11×2 = -22

Denominator = 3

So, answer will be :

$-11\times \dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{-22}{3}$ (negative)

The second expression is:

$-11\times \dfrac{-2}{3}$

Numerator = -11×-2 = 22

Denominator = 3

So, the answer will be :

$-11\times \dfrac{-2}{3}=\dfrac{22}{3}$ (positive)

Hence, this is the required solution.
