The statement is false .

let ; n=-5

     m=-6

n - m= -5 -( -6 )

       = -5 + 6

       = 1

which is not a negative real number .

therefore it shows that negative real number are not closed under substrsction.

the process or skill of taking one number or amount away from another.

Example: 7-5=2

7 is a minuend

5 is a subtrahend

and 2 is a differenceSubtraction is an arithmetic operation that represents the operation of removing objects from a collection.

A software designer is mapping the streets for a new racing game. all of the streets are depicted as either perpendicular or par
ElenaW [278]

The equation of the central street PQ is  -1.5x - 3.5y = -31.5 option (b) is correct.

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

A straight line is a combination of endless points joined on both sides of the point.

We have a straight line:

-7x+3y=-21.5  

Convert it to the general form given below:

\rm y=mx+c

\rm 3y=-21.5+7x\\\\ \rm y = \frac{-21.5}{3}+\frac{7}{3}x or

\rm y = \frac{7}{3}x-\frac{21.5}{3}

m = \frac{7}{3}   (Slope of AB line)

For the slope(m') of the PQ line:

\rm m'=-\frac{1}{m}    ( because AB and PQ are perpendicular to each other)

\rm m' = -\frac{3}{7}

We know the:

\rm (y-y')=m'(x-x')

Where (x', y') = (7, 6), we get:

\rm (y-6)=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)

\rm 7(y-6)=-3 (x-7)\\\\\rm 7y-42= -3x+21\\\\\rm 7y= -3x+21+42\\\\\rm 3x+7y=63

\rm -1.5x-3.5y=-31.5   (multiply by -1/2 on both sides)

Thus, the equation of the central street PQ is  -1.5x - 3.5y = -31.5

Rani has at most $20 to spend on a canoe rental. To rent a canoe $12.To use the canoe cost $3 an hour. Write an inequality that
Julli [10]

Answer:

Rani can use the rented canoe for  h\leq 2\frac{2}{3}  hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rani has at most $20 to spend on a canoe rental.

To rent a canoe $12.To use the canoe cost $3 an hour.

The number of hours is h.

Now, to find h the number of hours rani can use the rented canoe.

Total money Rani has at most to spend = $20.

The rent of a canoe = $12.

The cost of using canoe per hour = $3.

<em><u>According to question:</u></em>

Now, to find the number of hours rani can use the rented canoe:

3h+12\leq 20

<em>Subtracting both sides by 12 we get:</em>

<em />3h\leq 8<em />

<em>Dividing both sides by 3 we get:</em>

<em />h\leq \frac{8}{3}<em />

<em />h\leq 2\frac{2}{3}<em />

Therefore, Rani can use the rented canoe for  h\leq 2\frac{2}{3} hours.
