Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
To turn the word problem into an equation, when we read:
"I am thinking of a number" we write "x"
"when I double my number" we write "2x"
"and then subtract the result from 5" we write "5 - 2x"
"I get negative one" we write "-1 = 5 - 2x"
Now we solve for the number, which is x.
<em>Equation: </em>-1 = 5 - 2x
-1 = 5 - 2x
subtract 5 from both sides
-6 = -2x
divide both sides by -2
3 = x

There we go! The number is </h3><h2>

Answer:
A. z increased by 8
Step-by-step explanation:
When a positive value is added, the original value (z) is <em>increased</em>.
z + 8 ⇔ z increased by 8
you have to find the scale factor by its length
how to : scale factor = dimension of the new shape ÷ dimension of the original shape
but if it is scaled then do
scale factor = larger figure dimensions ÷ smaller figure dimensions
The answer to the equation is 5 7/15
