Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-(5x-2) = 27

Distribute the minus sign

-5x +2 = 27

Subtract 2 from each side

-5x +2-2 = 27-2

-5x = 25

Divide by -5

-5x/-5 = 25/-5

x = -5

In Jim's class, 5 times as many students take the bus as those who walk. A total of 24 students walk or take the bus. How many m
lana [24]
The answer is 16.  To solve this problem, it will look like this:
5 n + n = 24
So, 6(4) = 24. n=4
With this equation, you can see that 4 kids walk to school and 20 take the bus. Then you need to do 20 - 4 = 16. So 16 more kids take the bus than walk to school. 

Another way to look at it...
We know there are 5 times as many bus kids as there are walkers. 
walkers - n
bus kids - n+n+n+n+n
6n = 24 (the total number of students), which can translate to 6 x n = 24. We know that 6x4=24, so n=4. The number of kids that walk is 4. The number of kids on the bus is 20. So subtract the bus kids from the walking kids, and that leaves us the answer. 16 more students ride the bus than those who walk. I hope that helped.

A mechanic is using a machine that makes metal parts. She measures each part to confirm it is the correct size. Negative numbers
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the complete question is shown.

We have to transform all the fractions to new fractions with the same denominator, as follows:

1/8 *4/4 = 4/32

-3/16 *2/2 = -6/32

-1/4 *8/8 = -8/32

1/32

5/32

-1/16 *2/2 = -2/32

Now we can order the list simply comparing numerators:

-8/32, -6/32, -2/32, 1/32, 4/32, 5/32

or

-1/4, -3/16, -1/16, 1/32, 1/8, 5/32

Which is a better buy?
pav-90 [236]

Answer: I would say to go with "2-cup carton of pineapple juice for $1.04"

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want more pineapple juice for a cheaper price go with 2-cup carton for $1.04 The reason I say this is because 2 quarts equal 8 cups, so if you multiply the 2 cups and price by 4 you get 8-cups= $4.16 which is cheaper.
