d. Numbers get smaller
as you move to the left on the number line.
And conversely when the
number moves along to the right it increases by interval of typically 1. Why
does this happen? Because this phenomenon is the illustration of how number are
ordered and hierarchical. Integers can better explain the numbers beyond 0. The
existence of the negative numbers which is obviously less in value than the
real numbers 1 , 2 , 3 and so on.
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate 18 x - 2 (3 x + 1) = 5 x - 16 where x = -2:
-2×18 - 2 (1 - 2×3) = -2×5 - 16
3 (-2) = -6:
-2×18 - 2 (-6 + 1) = -2×5 - 16
1 - 6 = -5:
-2×18 - 2-5 = -2×5 - 16
18 (-2) = -36:
-36 - 2 (-5) = -2×5 - 16
-2 (-5) = 10:
10 - 36 = -2×5 - 16
5 (-2) = -10:
10 - 36 = -10 - 16
10 - 36 = -26:
-26 = -10 - 16
-10 - 16 = -26:
-26 = -26
-26 is equal to -26:
Answer: True
18 inches would be the answer
We know that 2x + 5 = 10 - 3x, and because of this we can solve for x.
2x + 5 = 10 - 3x
+3x
5x + 5 = 10
-5
5x = 5
/5
x = 1
We can plug x into each x value to verify if this is true.
2(1) + 5 = 10 - 3(1)
2 + 5 = 10 - 3
7 = 7
