Answer: What number, when added to negative four is equal to negative five.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearange the numbers to get -4+g=-5.

This eqation now reads -4 plus a number g is equal to -5, and can also be read as what number (g) added to -4 = -5.

If we were to solve for g we would get g= -1.

Answer:

1. 2x can be seen as +2x therefore when you put it as +2x-5x the answer will be - 3x

2. +3a+2a also equals +5a

3. - 5 is left alone and there is no other similar expression

Put them together the answer becomes

-3x+5a-5

It doesn't have to be the same order of format but the numbers must be as such

F(x)=-3|x-4| Vertical shrink by a factor of 1/2

sweet [91]

to vertically shrink a function by a factor of c, multiply the whole function by c

f(x) vertically shrunk by a factor of c would be cf(x)

so f(x)=-3|x-4| vertically shrunk by a factor of 1/2 would be $f(x)=(\frac{-3}{2})|x-4|$

Jared wants to save $100 to buy a tennis racket. He saves $8 each week, and his mother gives him an extra $0.25 for each dollar

scoundrel [369]

If he saves $ 8 each week...and his mom is giving him 0.25 for each dollar, then he will have (8 + 0.25(8)) = 8 + 2 = $ 10 per week

10w = 100.....with w being the number of weeks
w = 100/10
w = 10...so he will have it in 10 weeks <==
