To subtract a negative number from one you will need to set it up like this

1- (-x) x equals the negative number you're talking about

so we use the method KCC (keep change change)

So we KEEP the positive one, CHANGE the subtraction sign in to a plus sign "+" then CHANGE the negative number to a positive

lets say the negative number is 2

1-(-2)

1+ (+2)

1+2 = 3

when you subtract a negative number from any platitude number the equation changes to addition so you would add the value of the negative number to 1.

Solve the proportion 40/z+1 = 15/6
vovangra [49]

Answer:

<h2>z = 15</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{40}{z + 1}  =  \frac{15}{6}  \\

<u>Cross multiply </u>

That's

15(z + 1) = 40(6) \\ 15z + 15 = 240

<u>Send 15 to the right side of the equation</u>

15z = 240 - 15 \\ 15z = 225

Divide both sides by 15

\frac{15z}{15}  =  \frac{225}{15}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>z = 15</h3>

Hope this helps you

Haruka hiked several kilometers in the morning. She hiked only 666 kilometers in the afternoon, which was 25\%25%25, percent les
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

She hiked 1,554 kilometers in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hiking kilometers for morning be x

Given that:

Hiking kilometers in afternoon = 666

According to given condition that afternoon kilometers are 25% less than morning:

x = 666 + 25% of x

By simplifying:

x = 666 + 0.25x

x - 0.25x = 666

0.75x = 666

Dividing both sides by 0.75 we get:

x = 666/0.75

x = 888 kilometers

She hiked 888 kilometers in morning

And

Total = 888 + 666 =1554 km

i hope it will help you!
