Answer: -8 is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
according to the question:
{{(8+4)*5}/(-10)}-2
= {[12*5}/(-10)]-2
= [60/(-10)]-2
= -6-2 = -8
its wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so you need to start off by using the distributive property, meaning you are going to multiply -2 by both items within the parentheses. this gives you -2x + 10 = -14. from here you want to isolate x, so you’ll subtract both sides by 10 to move it to the other side. this gives you -2x=-24. then you’ll divide both sides by -2 to completely isolate x. this gives you x=12. does that make sense?
Total ratio = 4+7 = 11
33/11 = 3
4x3 = 12
7x3 = 21
so the two groups are 12:21
which is also = 4:7
