Answer:
"descends"
Step-by-step explanation:
The word descend means to move or fall downwards. If we were to think of the ladder as the y-axis of a coordinate grid we could see that as you move further down on the axis the numbers turn to negative which indicate that the word descend means that a negative integer should be used :)
Answer:
One clay block = x = $2.50 from before.
One mold = y = $4.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the second one by -2 to get -12x-2y=-38.00
Add these equations to eliminate y:
-12x-2y=-38.00
3x+2y=15.50
Result: -9x+0y=-22.50
9x=22.50
x=$2.50

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: x = 1
Discussion
:
Per the author, the equation to solve is 12 = 5x + 7
Isolate the "x" variable by subtracting 7 from both sides of the equation:
12 = 5x + 7
-7 = -7
---------------------
12-7 = 5x + 0
or
5 = 5x
Dividing both sides by 5 gives x - 1

Let this number be x.
"Six less than seven times a number is equal to -20" can be represented by the equation 7x - 6 = -20. We need to solve for x.
First, add 6 from each side so we can have the variables on a side and the numbers on the other:
7x - 6 + 6 = -20 + 6
7x = -14
Then, you divide each side by 7 so we can get the variable x alone on a side, and its value on the other side:
(7x)/7 = -14/7
x = -2
You can re-check your answer (very important):
7x - 6 = 7 (-2) - 6 = -14-6 = -20
The answer has been approved.
Hope this Helps! :)
Answer: no, because you are subtracting the 3 rather than adding
Step-by-step explanation:
