It will be a negative.
for an example: -20 for x would mqke 2x + 1 into -39 and 8x + 5 into -155. that's 116 apart, so maybe -2(8) + 5 = -11
-2(2) + 1 = -3
but that's only 8 apart, so it'd be higher.
-4(2) + 1 = -7
-4(8) + 5 = -27
BOOM
Tadaaaa,
You probably thought positive, but sometimes it's negative, you know what I mean?
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the order of operations to evaluate the expression.
From left to right , Multiplication/Division followed by Addition/Subtraction.
21 / 3 + 8 - 4
= 7 + 8 - 4
= 15 - 4
= 11
Therefore, the answer is D
A=3,500×(1+0.0485÷4)^(4×11)
A=5,947.99
6000=3500(1+0.0485/4)^4t
Solve for t to know the time needed to reach 6000
Time=11.2
So the time needed is 11 years and 2 months
That's the answer in my opinion.good luck!
