Which number line best shows how to solve −8 − (−2)? (5 points)

Mathematics
1 answer:
aliya0001 [1]1 year ago
6 0

A number line from negative 10 to 10 is shown, with numbers labelled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8. Another arrow points from negative 8 to negative 6. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

<h3>What is a number line?</h3>

A number line is a straight line with numbers placed at equal intervals. Positive numbers are placed to the right of 0 and negative numbers are placed to the left of zero.

When a number (x) is added x unit is moved to the right while if a number (x) is subtracted x unit is moved to the left.

Now, solve -8 - (-2)

= -8 + 2=-6

So, a number line from negative 10 to 10 with numbers labelled at intervals of 2. An arrow is shown from point 0 to negative 8 then since 2 is added, we move 2 units right from negative 8 to negative 6.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

If a coin has been altered so that the probability of heads coming up is 3/10, then the probability of tails coming up is also 3
soldier1979 [14.2K]
False. In a coin, there are 2 possible out comes i.e. a head and a tail. if p is the probability of one side coming up, then the probability of the other side comin up will be q = 1 - p.

Therefore, if the probability of head coming up is 3/10, the probability of tail coming up will be 1 - 3/10 = 7/10.

Calculate the perimeter and area of the triangle formed by the coordinates K (-4,-1) ,L(-2, 2), and M (3,-1).
Y_Kistochka [10]

Perimeter = 16.4 units

Using the heron's formula, Area ≈ 10.4 units².

<h3>What is the Heron's Formula?</h3>

The heron's formula is used to find the area of a triangle with known side lengths of all its three sides, a, b, and c. The heron's formula is given as: Area = √[s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)], where s = half the perimeter of the triangle

s = (a + b + c)/2.

Given the following:

K (-4,-1) ,

L(-2, 2),

M (3,-1)

Use the distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}, to find KL, LM, and KM.

KL = √[(−2−(−4))² + (2−(−1))²]

KL = √13 ≈ 3.6 units

LM = √[(−2−3)² + (2−(−1))²]

LM = √34 = 5.8 units

KM = √[(−4−3)² + (−1−(−1))²]

KM = √49 = 7 units

Perimeter = 3.6 + 5.8 + 7 = 16.4 units

Semi-perimeter (s) = 1/2(16.4) = 8.2 units

KL = a ≈ 3.6 units

LM = b = 5.8 units

KM = c = 7 units

s = 8.2

Plug in the values into √[s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)]

Area = √[8.2(8.2 - 3.6)(8.2 - 5.8)(8.2 - 7)]

Area = √[8.2(4.6)(2.4)(1.2)]

Area = √108.6336

Area ≈ 10.4 units²

Thomas reads 2/9 of a book on Monday and 1/6 of it on Tuesday. He reads twice as many pages on Wednesday as on Tuesday. What fra
dezoksy [38]
1/18 is left. Thomas has 1/18 left of his book. How? What denominator can 9&6 relate to? 54? Sure, but it could be lower. How about 18? Ok. We have 18 because 9x2 and 6x3 both equal 18... 2/9 becomes 4/18 because 18 divided by 9 is 2. You multiply 2 with the two from 2/9. 1/6 becomes 3/18 because 18 divided by 6 is 3. You then multiply 3 with the one from 1/6. Put it together and TA-DA... Your answer is 1/18

7. Amber has $37 to spend. She bought a coffee for
enot [183]

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

1.75 ( would be the coffee) + 1.50d (donuts each but an unknown quantity)

total amount must be less than $37 dollars

Your answer would be 37.00 - 1.75 = 35.25 cents

35.25 / 1.50 = 23.5 donuts - you can not purchase a half of a donut  so you can buy 1 coffee and 23 donuts for $36.25
