Subtracting a positive is the same thing as adding a negative. Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive. Sometimes it's a little easier to do it that way.

Answer: it’s helps to write a subtraction problem as an addition problem becuase then solving the problem gets easier

You can write a subtraction problem as an addition problem by flipping the terms.

For example:

3-2 is the same as -2+3

15-7 is the same as -7+15

30-15 is the same as -15+30

If x and y satisfy both 9x+2y=8 and 7x+2y=4, then y=?
Alex

Answer:

The value of y is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

9x+2y=8 ------> equation A

7x+2y=4 ------> equation B

we know that

If x and y satisfy both equations, then (x,y) is the solution of the system of equations

Using a graphing tool

Remember that

The solution of the systems of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is (2,-5)

therefore

The solution of the system of equations is the point (2,-5)

The value of y is -5

At the candy store there are 420 gumdrops and 280 chocolate bars, for a total of 700 candies all together. What is the ratio of
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

5 : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of gumdrops = 420

Number of chocolate bars = 280

Total Number of candies = 700

To find:

The ratio of candies to chocolate bars = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us discuss the method to find the ratio of any two quantities.

Suppose, we need to find the ratio of two numbers p and q.

Then to find the ratio p:q , we need to divide p by q and represent it in the simplest form \frac{a}{b} such that a and b can not be divided further.

Here, to find the ratio of candies to chocolate bar:

Ratio = \dfrac{\text{Number of candies}}{\text{Number of chocolate bars}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{700}{280}

Here, we can simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 10 first:

\dfrac{70}{28}

Now, let us divide the numerator and denominator by 14:

\dfrac{5}{2}

So, the ratio is <em>5 : 2</em>

we use this to find the absolute value...

it can be explained easily as meaning like rounding off

I'm that even the number given inside in negative we should write the answer only in positive

negative number can never be the answer of absolute value
