Hi,

Work:

Equation;

x - 28 =  - 5

Move constant -28 to the right side and change its sign.

x =  - 5 + 28

Calculate the sum

x = 23


Hope this helps.

Correct the error a student made when solving the equation 4=-2(x-3). What is the correct solution?​
Murrr4er [49]
In the first step when the student did -2x-3 they didn’t make the sign positive. It should be 4=-2+6, not 4=-2-6

Trapezoid QRST has two right angles. A 5in. altitude can be drawn dividing QRST into a rectangle and an isosceles right triangle
iVinArrow [24]
The area of the trapezoid is 57.5 square inches.

If you draw out the description, you will see that your trapezoid can be divided into a rectangle that is 9 x 5 and an isosceles right triangle with a base of 5 and height of 5. 

Just find the areas of both and add them together.

Rectangle:
5 x 9 = 45

Triangle:
0.5 x 5 x 5 = 12.5

45 + 12.5 = 57.5

I need help!! Can some one explain how to do it? My teacher explanation was hard to understand. Mr. Majors ordered six hot dogs
stellarik [79]
Each hot dog is 2.50

The popcorn is 3.20 so you subtract that from the total you’ve spent which is 15
Then you divide 15 by six
