Michael is using a number line to evaluate the expression –8 – 3. A number line going from negative 12 to positive 12. A point is at negative 8.

After locating –8 on the number line, which step could Michael complete to evaluate the expression?
Michael could rewrite the expression as Negative 8 + 3 and move 3 spaces to the right.
Michael could rewrite the expression as Negative 8 + negative 3 and move 3 spaces to the right.
Michael could rewrite the expression as Negative 8 + 3 and move 3 spaces to the left.
Michael could rewrite the expression as Negative 8 + negative 3 and move 3 spaces to the left.

the answer is f(x)=2x-1

step-by-step explanation:

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
