Answer:

7+4

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are subtracting a negative, you are really adding the number. For example, four minus negative seven is equal to four plus seven.

4 - (-7) = 4+7

4+7 = 7+4 (By the commutive property of addition)

Let me know if this helps!

I need help. how do i write 4=(-8)+3x as a decimal

Vanyuwa [196]

This is an equation, you can't write equations as decimals. I think you're asking for x (as a decimal)?

Add 8 to each side: 4+8= 8+(-8)+3x
12=3x
x=4
This is a whole number so it's already in decimal form

Find the equation of a line given the point and slope below.

Levart [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{y - 6}{x - 3} = - 3$

$- 3(x - 3) = y - 6$

$- 3x + 9 = y - 6$

$y = - 3x + 9 + 6 = - 3x + 15$

tracy rakes leaves to help her parents .she can rake 4 bags of leaves in 40 minutes .if she continues to rake leaves at this rat

Stels [109]

The question can be answered using ratio and proportion.
In 40 minutes, Tracy can rake 4 bags of leaves. In 2 hours (which is equivalent to 120 minutes), how many bag will it be?

Making the equation.
4 : 40 = BAGS : 120
4 x 120 = 40 x BAGS
480 = 40 (BAGS) // Divide both sides by 40
BAGS = 12.

So there will be 12 bags of leaves.

{4x-2y<0}<br> {5x+3y<-11}

kkurt [141]

Finding the sum for y in the equation 4x-2y< 0
so 4x - 2y = 0
4x - 2y - 4x would equal 0 - 4x
-2y = -4x
-2y divided by -2 equals -4x / -2
That means y=2x
