You would have to make the numbers have the same denominator. So you would have -15/20 + 4/20
Then you would have to put the sign of the higher number on it, So you would have -15/20 + 4/20 = -11/20
Answer:
(If you were asking for the answer for question 7)
c. Initially, Cassie has $20 in her account.
Step-by-step explanation:
-20 represents the slope or rate of change of the line and 275 represents the y-intercept or starting point of the line on the y-axis. C is the right answer because initially Cassie had $275 in her account, not $20.
Answer:
C = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
First, combine like terms (terms with the same amount of variables):
14 = -2C - 3C - 6
14 = (-2C - 3C) - 6
14 = (-5C) - 6
Isolate the variable, C. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operation, and equals:
Parenthesis
Exponents & Roots
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction.
First, add 6 to both sides:
14 (+6) = -5C - 6 (+6)
14 + 6 = -5C
-5C = 20
Next, divide -5 from both sides:
(-5C)/-5 = (20)/-5
C = 20/-5
C = -4
-4 is your value for C.
