For example, think about 8.4 - 2.9.
You have to regroup because you can't subract 4 - 9.
4 turns into a 14 since you borrow from the left number, 8.
8 turns into a 7 after that.
Now, you have to subtract 14 - 9 and 7 - 2. You're answer is 5.5.
You can check your work by doing inverse opperations:
By adding:
5.5 + 2.9 = 8.4
Or by subracting 8.4 - 5.5 = 2.9
Hope this helped you! If you need a better explaination or another example, I will be happy to help you! :)
Answer:
y= -9x+14
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a straight line is y=mx+c
m is the slope
And we are given a y and x term
So we substitute these into the equation:
5= -9(1) + c
rearragne to find c
14= c
so the full equation is:
y= -9x+14
Hello...
Tony and his three friends live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but they all attend college in Boston, Massachusetts. Because they want to have a car at school this year, they are planning to drive Tony's car from Albuquerque to Boston at the beginning of the school year. Although they'll each pay for their own food during the road trip, the friends plan to split the costs for gas and hotels evenly between the four of them.
Estimate the total cost that each friend will have to pay for gas and hotels. Explain how you got your answer. Here are some figures that may help you out:
•Tony's car can travel 28 miles for each gallon of gas.
•The average fuel cost at the time of their trip is $3 per gallon.
•They plan to drive about 650 miles each day.
•They estimate the average cost of a hotel each night is $85.
•They will drive approximately 2,240 miles to get from Albuquerque to Boston.
Solution:
Cost of Gas:
2240 / 28 x 3 = $240
Cost of Lodging:
85 x floor2240 / 650 = $255
Cost of both: $240 +255 = $495.
The cost for a 1/4 share is $495/4 = $123.75.
The answer is 95ft
1. Set up an equation 52-x=-43
2. Subtract 52 from both sides -x=43-52
3. Simplify -x=-95
4. x=95
All the best (if you don't understand the equation let me know if you want help)
