The answer is -2 when you simplify
Answer:
JL = 68
Step-by-step explanation:
JM = ML
Hence, 3x + 4 = 5x - 16
Subtract 3x from both sides
4 = 2x - 16
Add 16 to both sides
20 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
10 = x
Now we want to find JL
Note that JL = JM + ML
JM = 3x + 4 and x = 10
Substitute 10 for x
3(10) + 4
Multiply
30 + 4
Add
JM = 34
Because JM = ML
We simply multiply 34 times 2 to find the length of JL
34 * 2 = 68
JL = 68
-3.7 is greater than -3.8, but is it not less than of equal to -3.8
The formula of the Simple Interest is:
I=PRT
P for Principle Amount ($1200)
R for Rate (5%=

= 0.05)
T for Time in years (4 years)
I = 1200 × 0.05 × 4
= $240
Add the interest to the principle amount to check the balance
$1200 + $240 = $1440
Answer:
p=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
5p=-35
Divide both sides by 5
5p/5 =-35/5
therefore p=-7
