It is 3.
You can check this by seeing 3^3 ie. 3x3x3, which comes out as 27.
You can check the cube root on a calculator.
7x-1+7x+8+5x+2=180
7x+7x+5x+2-1+8=180
19x+9=180
19x=180-9
19x=171
19x\19=171\19
x=9
therefore,7x-1
7(9)-1
=62
therefore, 7x+8
7(9)+8
=71
therefore 5x+2
5(9) +2
=47

4(2a-b)
8a - 4b
Answer:
-2700 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The first year we have a loss of 1500 dollars. On the balance sheet we write -1500, with the negative indicating loss. Some accounting practices will use parenthesis to mean loss, so you might see it as (1500). But in this problem, we'll use negative signs for loss.
The second year is loss of 1200. Add up the two losses (the positive versions of each) to get 1500+1200 = 2700. Then make the result negative. Taking one loss and adding more loss to it means your loss has gotten bigger. So that's why the closing balance at the end of year 2 is -2700 dollars, which is a loss of 2700 dollars.
To answer this, we need the original equation.
