Answer:
Step-by-step Solution:
<u>Isolate the variable x to get the answer.</u>
- x − 2/5 = −1
- => x = -1 + 2/5
- => x = -1 + 0.4
- => x = -0.6
Hence, the value of x is -0.6.
32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.
Let x be the total number of students.
1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.
We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x
We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x
Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x
Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x
Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
Answer: Choice C. 
and Choice E. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Algebraic exponents.
A'(- 4, 3 )
Under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of 90°
a point (x, y ) → (- y, x )
A(3, 4 ) → A'(- 4, 3 )
