Describe a way to check the correctness of a subtraction answer.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tamiku [17]1 year ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Well in general, we can represent subtraction as: x-y=z

"z" represents the difference, and it really just represents x with y taken away. So if we were to "give back" this y value, we should get "x".

This means that: z+y=x

So one way to check, is adding the value that's being subtracted (y value) and the difference (z value), this should get you the value that is being subtracted from (x value). If you don't get the original value that's being subtracted from (x-value) then you know the answer you got is wrong.

How can finding the slopes of MN and AB help in proving that MN is the midsegment of triangle ABC?
Mademuasel [1]
Mid-segment and bottom side of the triangle is always parallel to each other, and parallel lines must have same slopes, so if their slopes are equal, then MN would be mid-segment of side AB in Triangle ABC

Hope this helps!

A scale model of a boat is 6 inches long. The actual boat is 42 feet long. Which statement(s) are true??
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

B. 1 in = 7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since on the scale the boat was 6 inches and the actual boat was 42 feet, we need to divide to see how many feet correlate to the number on inches on the scale. So we do 42 / 6, which equals 7. This means that for every inch on the scale, it will be 7 feet in real life.
