5x-4=16. I hope this helps :)
Answer:
-x > -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start with a positive number less than 5.
4<5
likewise when applied to -x> -5
-4>-5
I believe the total is 16.53. First I took 7% of 57 is 3.99. Then multiplying 57 by 0.22 and adding that to 3.99 which is 16.53
It is not. In the decimal system each column to the right is valued at powers of ten starting at zero and increasing as you move to the left...in a four digit number...the columns are valued at...
10^3, 10^2, 10^1, 10^0 which corresponds to...
1000, 1000, 10, 1 in this case the first digit is equal to
5(1000)=5000 the value of the last digit is 5(1)=5
So the first 5 is 1000 times as great as the second 5...
Hope this helps!

so, we know the first term is 2, whilst the common difference is -5, therefore, that means, to get the next term, we subtract 5, or we "add -5" to the current term.
