The answer is 5. Work backwards: first add 7 to 9, then divide by 2, then subtract 3.
9+7=16
16/2=8
8-3=5
Cross Check:
5+3=8
8*2=16
16-7=9
Final Answer: 5
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 18+22 = 40 people with birds. There are a total of 18+25 = 43 people with rabbits.
This is a difference of 43-40 = 3 people.
A fraction could be -3 1/6
Answer:
k = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
5k = 6k + 4 - 6
We can simplify this by solving 4 - 6 (replacing it with -2 !)
5k = 6k - 2
Now we can subtract 5k from both sides.
0 = k - 2
Finally, we can add 2 to both sides. This gets rid of the negative 2 on the right.
2 = k
Just reversing it...
k = 2
Answer: k = 2
