    A + 9 = 20 - ProProfs

    A + 9 = 20

    • 9

    • 10

    • 20

    • 11

    Correct Answer
    A. 11
    Explanation
    The given equation is "a + 9 = 20". To find the value of 'a', we need to subtract 9 from both sides of the equation. This will give us "a = 20 - 9", which simplifies to "a = 11". Therefore, the correct answer is 11.

    Solve for p. p=888+99 - ProProfs

    Solve for p. p=888+99

    • 90

    • 11

    • 987

    • 900

    Correct Answer
    A. 987
    Explanation
    To solve for p, we need to evaluate the expression 888 + 99. Adding these two numbers gives us 987. Therefore, the value of p is 987.

    13 x (-4) - (-3) = ... - ProProfs

    13 x (-4) - (-3) = ...

    • -52

    • 61

    • -49

    • 49

    Correct Answer
    A. -49
    Explanation
    To solve this expression, we can follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS). First, we multiply 13 by -4, which gives us -52. Then, we subtract -3 from -52. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart, so -52 - (-3) becomes -52 + 3, which equals -49. Therefore, the correct answer is -49.

  • 5. 
    What is the value of 'b' in the equation? b - 6 = -9 - ProProfs

    What is the value of 'b' in the equation? b - 6 = -9

    • 2

    • -3

    • 3

    • -15

    Correct Answer
    A. -3
    Explanation
    In the equation b - 6 = -9, we need to find the value of b. To isolate b, we can add 6 to both sides of the equation. This will give us b = -3. Therefore, the value of b is -3.

    7 + (-5) x 3 = .. - ProProfs

    7 + (-5) x 3 = ..

    • 22

    • 6

    • 36

    • -8

    Correct Answer
    A. -8
    Explanation
    The expression 7 + (-5) x 3 can be solved using the order of operations, which states that multiplication should be done before addition. First, we multiply -5 by 3, which equals -15. Then, we add 7 to -15, resulting in -8. Therefore, the correct answer is -8.

    • X>1

    • X>2

    Correct Answer
    A. X<1
    Explanation
    The given inequality is x + 7 < 8. To solve this inequality, we subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality to isolate the variable x. This gives us x < 1, which means that the value of x is less than 1.

    3 + (-2) = y.   What is the value for y? - ProProfs

    3 + (-2) = y.   What is the value for y?

    • 1

    • -1

    • 2

    • -2

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    To solve this equation, we need to add 3 and -2. When we add a positive number and a negative number, we subtract the smaller number from the larger one and give the result the sign of the larger number. In this case, 3 is larger than 2, so we subtract 2 from 3, resulting in 1. Since the larger number is positive, the result is also positive. Therefore, the value of y is 1.

    What's the dependent variable? X=5a - ProProfs

    What's the dependent variable? X=5a

    • X

    • A

    • 5

    • Not given

    Correct Answer
    A. 5
    Explanation
    The dependent variable in this question is 5. This is because the value of X is determined by the value of a, and in this case, a is given as 5. Therefore, the value of X is 5 times 5, which equals 25.

    40 : (-8) = ... - ProProfs

    40 : (-8) = ...

    • 320

    • -5

    • 8

    • 5

    Correct Answer
    A. 8
    Explanation
    The given question is asking for the value that, when divided by -8, gives a result of 40. To find this value, we can multiply 40 by -8, which equals -320. Therefore, the correct answer is -320.
