Answer:
The line should begin on the right side 2 dashes (the small lines tht go throught the number line. There are 9 dashes between each whole number.)
Then the line should go left because it says x is less than 2/9. (which is right)
The line segment you should choose is the one with the open circle with an arrow going to the left.
<---O (looks like this lol.)
2(5-n)=-2+(-1*n)
2(5-n)=-n-2
distribute
10-2n=-n-2
add 2n to both sides
10=n-2
add 2 to both sides
12=n
900
You work backwards;
Since he read 3/4 of the remainder that would be 75 x 4 because 75 was left after 3/4. You would get 300. Then, you would do 300 / (1/3), this is getting the final thing, equals 900.
Hope this helps!
