Answer:
$2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we (always) highlight key details. In this case, we would highlight that th candy is 90 cents per pound, and the she bought 2.5 pounds. Now, we just multiply 2.5 by .90, and boom! We get $2.25. Mrs. Nixon spent $2.25 (or two dollars and twenty-five cents) on candy bars.
2. 8x -28 = -140
8x -28 + 28 = -140 + 28
8x = -112
8x/8 = -112/8
x = -14
3. -9 + x/3 = -23
-9 + 9 + x/3 = -23 + 9
x/3 = -14
x/3/3 = -14/3
x = -14/3
4. x/-1.5 - 3.5 = -13.5
x/-1.5 - 3.5 + 3.5 = -13.5 + 3.5
x/1.5 = -10
x/-1.5/-1.5= -10/-1.5
x = 20/3
5.-6(x + 3) = -36
-6x - 18 = -36
-6x - 18 + 18 = -36 + 18
-6x = -18
-6x/-6 = -18/-6
x = 3
6. k + 3.7/9.8 = -0.22
k + 3.7/9.8/9.8 = -0.22/9.8
k + 3.7 = -2.156
k + 3.7 - 3.7 = -2.156 - 3.7
k = -5.856
7. 12(x - 6) = -108
12x - 72 = -108
12x - 72 + 72 = -108 + 72
12x = -36
12x/12 = -36/12
x = -3
8. -21.83x - -19.9 = -23.83
-21.83x + 19.9 = -23.83
-21.83x + 19.9 - 19.9 = -23.83 - 19.9
-21.83x = -43.73
-21.83x/-21.83 = -43.73/-21.83
x = 2
9. -10x - 68 + x = 40
-9x - 68 = 40
-9x -68 + 68 = 40 + 68
-9x = 108
-9x/-9 = 108/-9
x = -12
10. -34 - 3x - 2x = 71
-34 - 5x = 71
-34 + 34 - 5x = 71 + 34
-5x = 105
-5x/-5 = 105/-5
x = -21
11. 3x - 77 - 8x = 23
-5x - 77 = 23
-5x - 77 + 77 = 23 + 77
-5x = 100
-5x/-5 = 100/-5
x = -20
12. 3x - 5(2x - 12) = 123
3x - 10x + 60 = 123
-7x + 60 = 123
-7x + 60 - 60 = 123 - 60
-7x = 63
-7x/-7 = 63/-7
x = -9
13. -3x + 6(x + 6) = 15
-3x + 6x + 36 = 15
3x + 36 = 15
3x + 36 - 36 = 15 - 36
3x = -21
3x /3 = -21/3
x = -7
14. 5x + 2(4x - 9) = -174
5x + 8x - 18 = -174
13x - 18 = -174
13x - 18 + 18 = -174 + 18
13x = -156
13x/13 = -156/13
x = -12
15. -3x + 6(5x + 3) = -171
-3x + 30x + 18 = -171
27x + 18 = -171
27x + 18 - 18 = -171 - 18
27x = -189
27x/27 = -189/27
x = -7
Answer:
-57
Step-by-step explanation:
13,8,3,-2 (decreasing by 5)
13,8,3,-2,-7,-12,-17,-22,-27,-32,-37,-42,-47,-52,-57.
The 15th term is -57.
