Explanation:
Regardless of the number of factors, the product will be negative if an odd number of factors are negative.
In the example, 3 of the factors are negative. 3 is an odd number so the product will be negative.
-2*-3*-1*1 = -6
_____
Of course, the product will be zero if any factor is zero, regardless of the signs of any other factors.
Well, solve for x.
Combine like terms by performing the opposite operation of subtracting 4x on both sides of the equation
The 4x's will cross out on the right
4x - 4x = 0x = 0
On the left:
2x - 4x = -2x
Now the equation looks like:
-2x + 3 = 2
Continue to combine like terms by subtracting 3 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
3 - 3 = 0
On the right:
2 - 3 = -1
Equation:
-2x = -1
Isolate x by performing the opposite operation of dividing -2 on both sides of the equation
On the left:
-2x ÷ -2 = 1
On the right:
-1 ÷ -2 = 1/2
x= 1/2
So, there is only one solution: 1/2
To calculate the tax multiply $860 by .06 (6%) to get $34.40.
To calculate the total amount you'll pay add $34.40 to $860 to get $894.40.
Answer:
4 calories per ounce.
Step-by-step explanation:
20/5 = 4
2x - 3y = 6
To find the x-intercept, plug zero in for y and solve.
2x - 3(0) = 6
2x = 6
divide both sides by 2
x = 3
The ordered pair is (3,0)
