Think of this as (1/5)x - 4 = -75, where x is the number that we are trying to figure out. To figure this out, we want to get x by itself, so we can go:
(1/5)x=-71
x=-71*5
x=-355
So your number is -355
Answer:
D 1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
6+8= 14
14/350 = 0.04
1/25= 0.04
Let the number total slices = x
He ate (1/4) x
He has x - 1/4 x = 3/4 x slices left.
Each one of these slices is cut into 1/8s
T (total number of slices) = 8 * (3/4x)
T = (8*3/4) x
T = (24/4)x
T = 6x slices.
We can use quadratic formula to determine the roots of the given quadratic equation.
The quadratic formula is:

b = coefficient of x term = 5
a = coefficient of squared term = 1
c = constant term = 7
Using the values, we get:
So, the correct answer to this question are option E and F
