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>

topjm [15]
Let the number of deluxe that Pacific has be x
the number that Caribbean has will be (x+18)
the number that Mediterranean has will be (3x-25)
total b=number of deluxe in the 3 ships will be:
x+(x+18)+(3x-25)
5x-7=928
5x=928+7
x=935/5
x=187
Hence the Pacific has 187, Caribbean has 187+18=205, Mediterranean has (3*187-25)

The farmer's market sells fruit baskets. Each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Use a to represent the cost of each apple a
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) a x 12

b) p x 4

c) (a x 12) + (p x 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) Since a is representing the cost of each apple, we have to multiply the a with 12.

2) Since p is representing the cost of each pear, we have to multiply the p with 4.

3) Finally, for c, each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Therefore, we just use our eautions from before and add them which will give you the total cost of one basket.

Hope this helps! :D

Line XY bisects and is perpendicular to AB and CD. CD = 10 and XY = 24. What is the length of AP?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

<u>AP = 13</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure.

CD = 10 and XY = 24

Line XY bisects and is perpendicular to AB and CD

∴ XY bisects at Y

∴ CY = 0.5 CD = 0.5 * 10 = 5

And from the geometry of the shape

P is the midpoint of XY

∴ XP = YP = 0.5 XY = 0.5 * 24 = 12

XY is perpendicular to CD

∴ ΔPYC is a right triangle at Y

∴ PC (hypotenuse) = \sqrt{PY^2+YC^2} =\sqrt{12^2+5^2}=\sqrt{144+25} =\sqrt{169} =13

From the figure AP = PC = 13
