Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

-7 - (-2)

-7 + 2

Example: If you owe someone $7, and you give them $2, how much do you still owe? You are owing him $7 so it's a negative and you give him $2 which is a negative as well since you are giving it to him. So, to answer how much do you still owe, you would add $2 to the $7 you owed, so now, you owe him $5, which is a negative since you OWE him.

Hope this helps:)

The mean of this data set is 9. What number is missing?<br><br> 11,20,_,3,1

kherson [118]

Let the missing number be x

Mean is the total sum of data over the number of data therefore,

(11+20+x+3+1) / 5 = 9
Then simplify
(35 + x) / 5 = 9
Then multiply 5 to both sides
35 + x = 45
Then subtract 35 to both sides to find x
X= 10

Hope this helps!

In the parallelogram shown in the picture solve for Z

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent.

Since angles z and 124° are opposite angles in the parallelogram, they are congruent angles.

Therefore we have:

$z=124°$
