Answer:
B. Start at -7 on the number line and move 11 to the right.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
We can add or remove only positive numbers on the number line to get it correct, so we need to open the parenthesis. When evaluated we get:
-7- (-11) = - 7 + 11 = 4
<u>Correct interpretation of of this expression is:</u>
- Start at -7 and add 11, thus move 11 points to the right, to get 4 as final point.
<u>Correct choice is:</u>
- B. Start at -7 on the number line and move 11 to the right.
Answer:
- n = 5q; 25q+5n = 200
- (n, q) = (20, 4)
- Margie has 20 nickels and 4 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Using the defined variables, we can translate the problem statements to equations:
- n = 5q . . . . Margie has 5 times as many nickels as quarters
- 25q + 5n = 200 . . . . the total value of Margie's coins is 200 cents
__
b) Substituting for n, we have ...
25q +5(5q) = 200
50q = 200 . . . . . . . collect terms
q = 200/50 = 4 . . . divide by the coefficient of q
n = 5·4 = 20
The solution is (n, q) = (20, 4).
__
c) Since n represents the number of nickels Margie has, n=20 means Margie has 20 nickels. Similarly, q=4 means Margie has 4 quarters.
Answer: 23 is a number.
Step-by-step explanation:
An algebraic expression is made up of terms consisting of variables (for example, n), a number (for example, 23) or a constant multiplied by variable or variables (for example, ax2 + bx + c).
the answer should be the second one
