What inverse operation should be used to isolate the variable in the equation p − 20 = 50?

Solve with work both bert and ernie received an increase in their weekly salaries. bert's salary increased from $520 to $520. ernie's salary went from $580 to $645. find the percent of increase for each salary. what was the larger of the two percents ?

If (x + 8) is a factor of f(x), which of the following must be true? both x = –8 and x = 8 are roots of f(x). neither x = –8 nor x = 8 is a root of f(x). f(–8) = 0 f(8) = 0

Aspacecraft can attain a stable orbit 300 kilometers above earth if it reaches a velocity of 7.7 kilometers per second. the formula for a rocket's maximum velocity v in kilometers per second is vequalsminus0.0098tplusc ln upper r, where t is the firing time in seconds, c is the velocity of the exhaust in kilometers per second, and r is the ratio of the mass of the rocket filled with fuel to the mass of the rocket without fuel. find the velocity of a spacecraft whose booster rocket has a mass ratio of 20, an exhaust velocity of 2.1 km/s, and a firing time of 15 s. can the spacecraft achieve a stable orbit 300 km above earth?
