Remark
One of the things you need to do is learn to read phrase by phrase.
What is the quotient of a number and 7? That meas you have a number, x, and it is divided by 7. What you do that the answer you get is the quotient.
x/7 is what you know so for. Now the first part says you take 12 away from that.
x/7 - 12 is what you have after doing that.
The result you get is - 2
x/7 - 12 = - 2 Add 12 to both sides
x/7 - 12 + 12 = - 2 + 12
x/7 = 10 Now multiply by 7
x = 10 *7
x = 70 <<< Answer the number is 70
Answer:
16 / C
Step-by-step explanation:
-4 x -4 = 16
4 x 4 = 16
two negatives cancel out when multiplying, that is why it equals 16*
