The answer is -5. -5 times 4 is -20, plus 9 is -11. -5 times 2 is -10, -1 is -11. -5 works.
From the given statement, we know the following...
0.35x = $247 where x = the orginial number
So if we solve for x by dividing by 0.35
x = $247/0.35 = $705.71
Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
-24 + (1-4)^2 (solve parentheses first)
= -24 + (-3)^2 (solve exponent)
= -24 + 9
= -15
