Movement in this problem can be thought as addition or subtraction. Going up a floor means taking your current floor and adding one. Same with going to a lower floor but with subtraction.

The first movement is going down the flight of stairs to reach the 2nd floor - 3.

Why are we using subtraction? Because we are going to a lower level.

2nd floor - 3 = -1 floor or some might consider this the basement.

Now, the next movement is going up 7 floors. This is going to be easy since we know what to do.

-1 floor + 7 = 6th floor

Hope this answer provides a clear explanation!

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

28/5 or 5  3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to make the mixed number into an improper fraction, like this:

3 1/2 turns into 7/2

Next you will need to do the reciprocal of division and inverse operation:

7/2 times 8/5

Then solve it:

7/2 * 8/5 = 56/10

Last simplify:

28/5

or

Inequality<br><br> Show your step by step solution to this.<br><br> 5-2x&gt;17
bonufazy [111]

<u><em>Answer: x<-6 *The answer should be the negative sign.*</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

subtraction property of equality is subtracting the same number from both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

subtract 5 both sides of an equation.

5-2x-5>17-5

simplify.

-2x>12

multiply by -1 both sides of an equation.

(-2x)(-1)<12(-1)

simplify.

2x<-12

divide by 2 both sides of an equation.

2x/2<-12/2

-12/2=-6

12/2=6

6*2=12

12/6=2

x<-6

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

Can someone help me round 621x29
wlad13 [49]

Your rounded number is 18010

The reason for this is because when you multiply 621X29, you get 18009. When you round numbers, you want to see how the numbers are. If a number is 4 or below, you will make that number a zero or not count it, whereas numbers above 5 will go up. I hope this helps and if you have any questions, let me know
