(I will do my best to entirely explain the subject) To understand Positives and Negatives you need to have a number line.
<u>-3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3</u>
Your whole life you have been using positives and negatives when you subtract or add a number. 9 - 2 is really just 9 + -2
With the number line it should be easier to understand that for every single time you add or take away you change the value. The more you take away (Negative numbers, 5 + -6) the farther down the value goes to the left, more towards the negative side (5 + -6 = -1). The same goes for addition (-6 + 9 = 3).
To multiply all you need to do is count how many times you see a negative number. If you see an even number of negatives then the answer will be positive because on the number line you went from one side to the other multiple times, left right left right and all that jazz. Hopefully i made this make more sense to you, if there is anything i need to clarify on please make it known so i can edit my answer.
Answer:
(x = -20) if what your saying is 6 = -2x - 4 and (x = -16) if what your saying is x = -2 x 6 - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
2 books in each box.
There are three boxes
2 times 3 equals 6
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct statements are options C and option D.
- - 6x + 15 < 10 - 5x ⇒ 3rd answer
- An open circle is at 5 and a bold line starts at 5 and is pointing to the right.
<h3 /><h3>What is inequality?</h3>
The relation between two expressions that are not equal, employing a sign such as ≠ ‘not equal to’, > ‘greater than, or < ‘less than.
The inequality is -3(2x - 5) < 5(2 - x)
At first, simplify each side
-3(2x - 5) = -3(2x) + -3(-5)
Remember (-)(-) = (+)
-3(2x - 5) = - 6x + 15
5(2 - x) = 5(2) + 5(-x)
Remember (+)(-) = (-)
5(2 - x) = 10 - 5x
- 6x + 15 < 10 - 5x
Subtract 15 from both sides
- 6x < -5 - 5x
Add 5x to both sides
- x < - 5
Remember the coefficient of x is negative, then when you divide both sides by it you must reverse the sign of inequality
The coefficient of x is -1
Divide both sides by -1
x > 5
Therefore the correct statements are options C and option D.
- - 6x + 15 < 10 - 5x ⇒ 3rd answer
- An open circle is at 5 and a bold line starts at 5 and is pointing to the right.
