The Right Answer:
We need to mutiply all the numbers.
5*-2 = -10
-10*-1 = 10
The Wrong Answer:
(-2)*(-1) gives +2 (a negative number multiplied for another negative gives a positive number).
2*5 = +10
Cost of chicken wings at Buffalo Bills = 8 wings for $7
Cost of 1 wing at Buffalo Bills = 
Cost of chicken wings at Buffalo Mild Wings = 12 wings for $10
Cost of 1 wing at Buffalo Mild Wings = 
Cost of chicken wings at Wingers = 20 wings at $17
Cost of 1 wing at Wingers = 
Hence, comparing all the three costs per wing, we can see that Buffalo Mild Wings is serving chicken wings at lowest price of $0.833 per wing.
Answer:
Jean is 9 and Tom is 15.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 years ago, Tom was 12 and Jean was 6, hence Tom was twice as old as Jean.
Since that was their age 3 years ago, they are currently 15 (Tom) and 9 (Jean).
Add 2 years to each of these ages, you get 17 and 11.
17 + 11 = 28
Answer:
1680
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 4 places (frames) to put up each poster, we think individually:
In the first place they can place ANY OF THE 8 POSTERS
In 2nd place, they can place ANY OF THE REMAINING 7 POSTERS
In 3rd place, they can place ANY OF THE REMAINING 6 posters
and
in last place, they can place ANY OF THE REMAINING 5 posters
The number of ways is the multiplication of them all, so:
8 * 7 * 6 * 5 ways = 1680 ways
Solve for x over the real numbers:
x^2 - 4 x = 5
Subtract 5 from both sides:
x^2 - 4 x - 5 = 0
x = (4 ± sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 (-5)))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(16 + 20))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(36))/2:
x = (4 + sqrt(36))/2 or x = (4 - sqrt(36))/2
sqrt(36) = sqrt(4×9) = sqrt(2^2×3^2) = 2×3 = 6:
x = (4 + 6)/2 or x = (4 - 6)/2
(4 + 6)/2 = 10/2 = 5:
x = 5 or x = (4 - 6)/2
(4 - 6)/2 = -2/2 = -1:
Answer: x = 5 or x = -1
