Answer:
w = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, w. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
Divide -2 from both sides:
(14)/-2 = (-2w)/-2
(14)/-2 = w
Note that when you are dividing:
- 1 negative & 1 positive sign will result in a negative answer
- 2 negative sign will result in a positive
- 2 positive sign will result in a positive
In this case:
(14)/-2 = -7
-7 is your answer for w.

Since x represents the year, year 15 will be 15 years.
Plug in "15" as your "x"
y = -2(15)^2 + 36(15) + 6
15^2 = 225 (Exponents come before multiplication)
y = -2(225) + 36(15) + 6
y = -450 + 540 + 6
y = 90 + 6
y = 96
<em>The answer is B</em>
Answer: C) Lindsey spent a total of $47 on her mother for her birthday. She bought a $35 box of chocolates and some balloons for $4 each. What is x, the number of balloons that Lindsey bought for her mother's birthday?
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming we have parallel lines, we can solve for x.
Since a = 3x - 10 (vertically opposite angles are equal),
3x - 10 = 2x + 15 (alternate angles are equal)
x = 25
Hence, angle a = 3(25) - 10 = 65°
