Answer:

(8 * x) -14 = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

* = multiply sign (i didnt want to put "x" as the multiply sign since "x" is already being used) ( mightve confused you with 2 "x"s in the parenthesis.

x = the number that is missing being multiplied by 8

I put "8" multiplied by "x" in parenthesis since you do parenthesis first in an equation.

Ms. hernandez has 100 to spend on parking and admission to the zoo. The park will cost $7 and admission tickets will cost $15.50

Firdavs [7]

Number of people < (should be smaller than or equal to but I don't have that button on my keyboard) (100-7) / 15.50

103/15.50 = 6.64516...
You can't have .645 of a person, so you must round down. Therefore, she can bring 6 people including herself.

Can you please Simplify 4a+7b+5a-b

vovangra [49]

Answer:

9a+6b

Step-by-step explanation:

4a+7b+5a-b

First figure out the a's 4a + 5a = 9a

Then do b's (Remember, if there is no number by the letter then it is 1)

7b - 1b = 6b

So for this to be simplified the answer is 9a+6b
