Answer:
a. =11+ 1
b. =4x+ (-7y) + (-5z) +6
c. (-3x) + (-8y) +(-4)+(-8/7z)
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 20 - 9 + 8 -7
=11+ 1 ( this is obtained by solving)
b. 4x - 7y - 5z + 6
=4x+ (-7y) + (-5z) +6
We multiply the negative sign with the positive sign to get a minus so the answer remains the same and the expression is written as an addition sum.
c. -3x - 8y - 4 - 8/7z
-[ 3x+8y+4+8/7z]
or
(-3x) + (-8y) +(-4) +(-8/7z)
The minus sign is taken as common leaving the expression with the plus only.
It can be written in the same manner as above, adding the negative terms so that the expression is written as a sum.
Answer: -120
Step-by-step explanation:
this would be the answer because if you take a positive and add it to a negative you get zero if their the additive inverse of the number.
Answer:
2094.5 muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is a little bit messy, but i’m guessing you meant that the elf ate 35% of the muffins, which 35% is 710 muffins. so since 35% of muffins is 710 muffins, let’s multiply that by 2 so we can get 70%.
so 710 x 2 is 1420. so 70% of the muffins is 1420 muffins! sadly that’s not all of the muffins. we’re still missing another 30%. since we don’t know how many muffins are in 30%, let’s just take 710 muffins - 5%. when you do that you get 674.5. so now that we know how much is in 30%, let’s take 1420 + 674.5. when you do that you get 2094.5! so you started off with 2094 and a half muffins!
