A. -(a+5)
Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:
-(a+5) * -1 = a+5
B. -(-x+31)
Apply the distributive property:
-(-x+31) becomes (- -x +31) which simplifies to (x+31)
multiply that by -1 to get -x+31
C. -(4x+12)
Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:
-(4x+12) * -1 = 4x+12
Counting principle
Multiply 11 * 9 * 3 * 7 = 2079
Answer:
A) 0.42/0.138
B) 0.38/0.019
C) 0.51/0.72
D) 0.46/0.293
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a = -25
Step-by-step explanation: a+ 52/3 =9
multiply both sides by 3
3(a+52)/3 = 9.3
Simplify
a+52=27
Subtract 52 from both sides
a+52-52=27-52
Simplify
a= -25
