Use a number line to show the following operations (a) -5+7-2 (b) -4×3 (c) 3.5+4.5

Hey there!

• A.

–5 + 7 – 2 = ?

–5 + 7 = 2

2 – 2 = 0

0 ☑️

• B.

–4 * 3 = ?

“Guide”

• Negative & Negative = Positive

• Positive & Positive = Positive

• Negative & Positive = Negative

• Positive & Negative = Negative

• So, in this particular equation your answer will most likely have a NEGATIVE result because you have a NEGATIVE number & a POSITIVE number!

–4 * 3 = –12

–12 ☑️

• C.

3.5 + 4.5 = ?

5 + 5 = 10

• CARRY your 1

3 + 4 + 1 = ?

3 + 4 = 7

7 + 1 = ?

8 ☑️

You basically had to do ORDER OF OPERATIONS / PEMDAS

(Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction)

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10
