Answer:
Subtract the original price from the sale price.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price of a box of cereal is $20
The sale price had been lowered though, to $16.53
Soo....
20 - 16.53 = 3.47
You saved $3.47
Answer: 2(z - 12) = 63
Step-by-step explanation:
Our task is to write the following:
So first, the difference of z and 12 means we're subtracting z and 12, and it's written this way:
Next, twice that difference is: . The reason why we need to put parentheses is because that way, 2 is multiplied by both z and -12.
This equals 63:
Answer:
2(z - 12) = 63
Step-by-step explanation:
Twice --> 2*
Difference of z and 12 --> (z-12)
Equals 63 --> = 63
If you combine...
2*(z-12) = 63
You can remove the * sign, because there is a bracket next.
2(z - 12) = 63

A) QR = 8
B) QR = -9
C) QR = 9
D) QR = 18
Explanation:
M is the midpoint of QR, so QM = MR, meaning that the two smaller pieces are equal (the two pieces combine back to QR)
Use substitution and isolate x
QM = MR
2x+5 = 5x-1
2x-5x = -1-5
-3x = -6
x = -6/(-3)
x = 2
If x = 2, then QM is
QM = 2x+5 = 2*2+5 = 9
and MR is
MR = 5x-1 = 5*2-1 = 9
both are 9 units long. Both are the same length as expected, so this helps confirm the answer.
The last thing we do is add up the two pieces QM and MR to get the length of QR. This is using the segment addition postulate.
QR = QM + MR
QR = 9 + 9
QR = 18
note: a negative length is never possible in any situation, so you can immediately eliminate choice B from the list of possible answers without even doing any math.
