-8 because when you add a negative number your basically subtracting its absolute value.
Answer:
From what I can comprehend I believe the answer is <em>3.2x + -4</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
0.4(2x-9) = 0.8x - 9
0.8x - 9 - 0.6(4x+5)=
0.8x - 9 + 2.4x+5
0.8+2.4 = 3.2x
-9 + 5 = -4
3.2x + -4
Hey!
To solve x in this equation we must first add five to both sides to get

on its own.
<em>Original Equation :</em>

<em>New Equation {Added 5 to Both Sides} :</em>

Now we must square both sides of the equation.
<em>Old Equation :</em>

<em>New Equation {Changed by Squaring Both Sides} :</em>

And now we must solve the new equation.
Step 1 - Switch sides

Step 2 - Subtract x from both sides

Step 3 - Simplify

Now we need to solve the rest of the equation using the quadratic formula.

<em>So, this means that in the equation

,</em>
x = 9 <em>and </em>
x = 4.Hope this helps!

Answer $32,045
Step-by-step explanation: Ok, to get the rate of depreciation all we we have to do is $45 divided by $40.480 you would get 1.1116.
The rate of depreciation: 1.1116
If you do $45,000 divided by 1.1116 you'll get 40,322.
It won't be the exact same answer because you would have to divide for an hour.
Now we can skip to the important part: $35,622 divided by 1.1116 = $32,045
Therefore the truck will be worth $32,045 in 10 years!
I hope this helped
