7g - 6 = -20
Add 6 to both sides
7g = -14
Divide both sides by 7
g = -2
answer: g = -2
Hey there!
Let's set up our expression:
(7a-6b+7)-(8a-2)
In order to simplify, we can use that subtraction sign and distribute it, using the distributive property. We have:
7a-6b+7-8a+2
Notice how it's plus two, because a negative times a negative two is a positive two. Now, it's a matter of finding the like terms and adding or subtracting them. These like terms can either have no variable, or have different coefficients but the same variable. That means our like terms are the 7a and -8a, and the 7 and 2. There's no like term for the 6b. That means we have:
(7a-8a) - 6b + (7+2) =
-a - 6b + 9
Hope this helps!

Remember that, for independent events, the probability that both occurr is the product of the individual probabilities.
a) Probability of being contacted: 78% = 0.78
Probaility of refusing: 1 - 22% = 1 -0.22 = 0.78
Combined probability: 0.78*0.78 = 0.6084
b) The probability of failing to contact or making contact and not geeting them to agree 1 - the probability of contacting and getting them to agree.
The probabilityof contacting and getting them to agree is 0.78*0.22 = 0.1716
The the answer to this question is 1 - 0.1716 = 0.8284
