This question is not even trying to test your arithmetic. It's just testing
to see whether you know how to read numbers in words properly.
When you read numbers in words, the only time you ever say "and"
is for a decimal point. There are no decimals in this question, so the
"and" is not a part of any numbers.
The question gives you two numbers. The word "and" is the marker
that's
BETWEEN them. The two numbers are 1,300 and 950 .
The first thing the question wants you to do is write the numerical
expression for all the words. That's (1300 - 950) / 4 .
The next thing you're supposed to do is"evaluate the expression" ...
find out what number it all boils down to. I don't think you'll have
any trouble with that now.
Answer:
y int (0, 13)
x int (-13/6,0)
just make the x = 0 and solve to get y
same with the x make y =0 and solve
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
We distribute the negative 5 to x minus three to get 8x-5x+15=18. Then, we cancel out the 15 by subtracting it from both sides. This leaves us with 8x-5x=3. When we subtract, we get 3x=3, and when we divide both sides by 3, we get x=1. Hope this helps :)
