Answer:
no real answer
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute the -4 and combine all of the like terms on the left side = r-8-4r, then -8-3r
then we have 7-3r=-8-3r
from here, we can already tell that there's no real answer. this is because the two -3r will cancel, leaving no variable.
since 7 doesn't equal -8, there is no answer.
if, for example, the value on both sides of the equal sign were the same after the variable was eliminated, then your answer would be all real numbers
Answer:
(-A)^2 for A = 5
(-5)^2
=25
Step-by-step explanation:
first, replace A by 5, and maintain the negative to the 5.
multiply (-5)^2.
nb: don't forget to maintain the bracket when multiplying. if you maintain the bracket, you'll get a positive number, but if you don't, you'll get a negative number.
Most real number arithmetic is pretty vacuous

That's about as good a way as possible to write this particular real number. But it's far from the only way.

so

Sometimes you can factor something out and you have a common radical:

But most of them are vacuous,

The answer is C -5/16 is -0.3 which means -5/16 cant be greater than or less than -0.3 so A and D are wrong and -2/3 is less than -5/16 which leaves us with C!
