C. -36/x = -9 can be solved by multiplying by x and dividing by -9:
-36 = -9x
-36/-9 = x = 4
Since the product of the divisor and quotient is the dividend, dividing the dividend by either gives the other. Here, your dividend is -36 and your quotient is -9. To find the divisor, you can divide -36 by -9, as we did.

D. The absolute value function changes the sign of negative numbers to positive:
|-998| = 998

E. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.
(−2)−[(−3)−(−7)−(−6)]

Answer:
2 11/12 mixed number
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Add 3 to both sides.
2x-3+3=7+3
2x=10
Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=10/2
x=5
Answer:
$117
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
They buy these books for $105 each and sell them to unsuspecting undergraduates at $222 each
Marginal Profit = Marginal Revenue – Marginal Cost.
Marginal Profit = $222 - $105
Marginal Profit = $117
the marginal profit for a single elementary statistics book $117
For the remaining unsold books in the middle of the semester he bundles them up and sells to vendor in another country for $40 each for which he suffers a marginal loss of $105 - $40 = $65 each
