7 0

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>

Your coffee bar has two kinds of drink One cup of the first one costs 9 grams of juice , 4 grams of coffee and 3 grams of sugar
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

How many drinks should be sold to get a maximal profit? 468

Sales of the first one = 345 cups

Sales of the second one = 123 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

maximize 1.2F + 0.7S

where:

F = first type of drink

S = second type of drink

constraints:

sugar ⇒ 3F + 10S ≤  3000

juice ⇒ 9F + 4S ≤  3600

coffee ⇒ 4F + 5S ≤  2000

using solver the maximum profit is $500.10

and the optimal solution is 345F + 123S

(-10, -10) and (-2, -3) find the slope.
ankoles [38]
The slope is 7/8.

Slope formula is the change in y over the change in x,
M=y2-y1 / x2-x1

M= -3 - (-10) / -2 - (-10)

Remember that two negatives equal a positive.

That makes the equation:
M= -3 + 10 / -2 + 10

M= 7/8

inn [45]

Answer:

\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{x(x-3)(x+3)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

\frac{2x+5}{x^{2} -3x} -\frac{3x+5}{x^{3} -9x} -\frac{x+1}{x^{2}-9}

First, we need to factor each denominator

\frac{2x+5}{x(x-3)} -\frac{3x+5}{x(x+3)(x-3)} -\frac{x+1}{(x-3)(x+3)}

So, the least common factor (LCF) is x(x-3)(x+3), because they are the factors that repeats.

Now, we diviide the LCF by each denominator, to then multiply it by each numerator.

\frac{(x+3)(2x+5)-3x-5-x(x+1)}{x(x-3)(x+3)} =\frac{2x^{2}+5x+6x+15-3x-5-x^{2}-x }{x(x-3)(x+3)}\\\frac{x^{2}+7x+10}{x(x-3)(x+3)}

Then, we factor the numerator, to do so, we need to find two numbers which product is 10 and which sum is 7.

\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{x(x-3)(x+3)}

Therefore, the expression is equivalent to

\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{x(x-3)(x+3)}
