First add 7d to both sides:
-22 = 11d
Now divide by 11 both sides
-2 = d
You can work on either side of the equation, I used the right side for the variables because it was easier to add to positive numbers than dealing with negative numbers on the left side:
-7d -4d = 22
-11d =22
d = -2
either way you get the same answer :)
<span>B. 16 quarts of the 2% milk and 24 quarts of the 7% milk
First, let's create an equation to solve.
x = quarts of 2% milk
(40-x) = quarts of 7% milk
So we have the equation
x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5
Now to solve for x
x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5
x*2 + 7*40 - 7*x = 40*5
x*2 - 7*x = 40*5 - 7*40
-5*x = - 2*40
x = 2*8
x = 16
So we need 16 quarts of 2% milk and 40-16 = 24 quarts of 7%, which matches option "B".</span>
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
we are solving 15 + |-3| - 4
anything inside | | means it's absolute value.
absolute value means that even if it is a negative number inside, it will change to positive. if it is a positive number inside, it will stay the same.
so |-3| is 3.
15 + 3 - 4
18 - 4 = 14.
we got the answer
1.25 also bc they are parallel
