Answer:
7n-6=-20
Step-by-step explanation:
six less than seven times a number
we'll use n as "the number"
six less meaning -6
7 times a number n = 7n
7n-6=-20
Answer:
With positive slope the line moves upward when going from left to right. With negative slope the line moves down when going from left to right.
hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Oldest = 2 times Youngest -> O = 2*Y
Middle = Youngest + 5 -> M = Y+5
All of them together is 57 -> O + M + Y = 57
So you have these three equations:
(1) O = 2*Y
(2) M = Y+5
(3) O + M + Y = 57
Now you want to reduce the number of variables. You can change the second equation to be Y = M-5 and then plug in "M-5" wherever there is currently a Y:
(4) O = 2*(M-5) = 2*M - 10
(5) O + M + (M-5) = 57
which becomes O + 2M = 62
Then you plug in the "O" equation (4) into (5) which gives you
(2M-10) + 2M = 62 which reduces to 4M = 72.
So now I know M is 18.
I can now plug that into my other equations:
(4) O = 2*18 - 10 which means O = 26.
Now I plug that into (1) from the top:
26 = 2*Y which becomes 13 = Y
So now I have O, Y, and M
Oldest is 26
Middle is 18
Youngest is 13
Reading the sentence again, you can see that this makes sense.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
8/24 are Red
Pick and return 2
So it will be 7/25
Again pick and return 2
Then it is 6/26
Now multiply the results
8/24 × 7/25 × 6/26 = 7/ 325
Answer: 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Because you can break the pentagonal base into triangles and the formula to find the area of a triangle is 1/2 Bh so 840/14 = 60 divided by 1/2 = 30
