Explanation:
Regardless of the number of factors, the product will be negative if an odd number of factors are negative.
In the example, 3 of the factors are negative. 3 is an odd number so the product will be negative.
-2*-3*-1*1 = -6
_____
Of course, the product will be zero if any factor is zero, regardless of the signs of any other factors.
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe you meant to say that if Samantha bought 510 pounds of hamburger, how much will she pay?
Now from the information we already have, we know that 3 pounds of hamburger will cost 6 dollars.
The next thing we need to know is how much one pound of hamburger will cost. This will help us calculate how much the rest will cost.
we now form an equation to assist us.
3 = 6
1= x
(where x represents the unknown price of one pound of hamburger)
Now we must cross-multiply:
3 * x = 6 x 1
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2
therefore one pound of hamburger costs 2 dollars.
Now, If one pound costs 2 dollars, how about 510 pounds?
We simply multiply: 510 x 2 = 1,020
Therefore Samantha will pay 1, 020 dollars for 510 pounds of hamburger.
Answer:
x=-4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
X=23 First, you have to subtract 12 by 12 to cancel it out. Next, you have to do the same thing to 20.05. 20.05 minus 12 is 8.05. All you have left is .35x. To get rid of the this you have to divide .35x by .35. Now all you have left is x. Finally you have to do the same thing to 8.05. 8.05 divided by .35 is 23. So, x=23
