Your first step when subtracting integers is (d) subtract the numbers

<h3>How to determine the first step?</h3>

The operation is given as:

Subtraction operation

Assume that the operation is a simple expression that involves subtraction, such as:

a - b

The first step is to subtract the numbers

Hence, your first step when subtracting integers is (d) subtract the numbers

Water tank is being filled with water. Before water is pumped in, the water level in the tank is 12 inches high. After 20 minute

zhenek [66]

Answer:

D. H = 2.1t + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the t be the time in minutes

And h be the water level

Now before reaching to the equation that need to be used

before this, determine the inches per minute i.e.

= 54 inches - 12 inches

= 42 inches in 20 minutes.

Now for per minute, it would be

= 42 inches ÷ 20 minutes

= 2.1 inches per minute

After this, multiply the inches per minute with the minutes t and add the sale to the beginning value i.e. 12

So the equation is

H = 2.1t + 12

hence, the last option is correct

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint. (Hint: Let (x,y) be the unkno

makkiz [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

Here, one point is A(10,8) and P(8,5) is the midpoint.

Let B(x,y) be the another end point.

Now,

Using midpoint formulae,

$p(x.y) = \frac{x1 + x2}{2} . \frac{y1 + y2}{2}$

$p(8.5) = ( \frac{10 + x}{2} . \frac{8 + y}{2} )$

Since they are equal,equating with their corresponding elements we get,

$8 = \frac{10 + x}{2}$

or, 16 = 10 + x

or, x=16-10

Therefore, x = 6

Now,

$5 = \frac{8 + y}{2}$

or, 10 = 8 + y

or, y = 2

Therefore, The coordinates of another point are B(6,2)

Hope it helps .....

If the side lengths of a cube are 14 feet, what is the correct way to write the expression to represent the volume of the cube i

Kryger [21]

Answer: Choice A) $14^3$

This is the same as writing 14^3

===================================================

Explanation:

Since all the sides are 14 feet long, we can basically say length = width = height = 14.

Or put another way:

length = 14
width = 14
height = 14

The volume of the cube is length*width*height = 14*14*14 = 14^3 = 2744 cubic feet.

-----------

The term 14^3 has a base of 14 and exponent of 3.

The base is what we multiply out while the exponent tells us how many copies of the base to multiply. In this problem, we have 3 copies of 14 being multiplied. So that's why 14^3 = 14*14*14

If you were to say something like 3^14, then you would have 14 copies of 3 multiplied out, which is a much larger value. So we'll cross choice B off the list.

Choice C isn't correct either since again we're using exponents and not multiplication to tie together the 14 and 3.

Choice D would be correct if your teacher wanted it in expanded form, instead of exponent form.
