Answer:

<h2>( -3 - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

( x - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

( <u>-3</u> - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

( -10 ) ÷ 5 = -2

-10 ÷ 5 = -2

<h2><em>The answer is -3</em></h2>

<em>The answer is negative 2 because if you minus negative 3 by 7 first, it will give you negative 10. When you divide negative 10 by 5, you get negative 2, which is the answer to the equation.</em>

<em>Hope this helps! <3</em>

wolverine [178]

Answer:

$440588.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the value of Zlatans house before the increase.

We are told that the value of Zlatans house has increased by 7%. His house is now valued at $749,000. This means that value of house(x) before increase plus 7% of x will be equal to $749000.

We can set this information in an equation as:  

x+\frac{70}{100}x=74900

x+0.7x=74900

Upon combining like terms we will get,

(1+0.7)x=74900      

1.7x=74900  

x=\frac{749000}{1.7}    

x=440588.2352941176470588\approx 440588.24      

Therefore, the value of the house before increase will be $440588.24.

Can the sides of a triangle have lengths 1, 7, and 11? Explain
Airida [17]

No

Given 3 sides of a triangle, the sum of any 2 sides must be greater than the third side.

Consider the 3 given sides 1, 7 and 11

7 + 11 = 18 > 1

1 + 11 = 12 > 7

1 + 7 < 11 ⇒ not valid

Hence these sides do not form a triangle
