The commutatice property for addition says a+b=b+a
If it was for subtraction, then it would be a-b=b-a
Take a=7 and b=5
7-5 is not equal to 5-7
2 is not equal to -2
So subtraction is not commutative for whole numbers.
Hope this helps :)
The area of a square or a rectangle (which is the shape of any room in a house) is:
Area = width x length
So, in this case:
Area = 51 m x 26 m = 1326 Sq meters. Which is pretty big if you ask me.
Anyhow, Ms Melcher needs to buy 1326 sq meters
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes.
<u>The given line has a slope of:</u>
<u>The perpendicular slope is:</u>
<u>And its y-intercept is:</u>
<u>The line is:</u>
<u>Convert this into standard form and compare with answer choices:</u>
- 3y = 2x + 21
- - 2x + 3y = 21
Correct choice is A
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of triangle plus the area of semicircle
so
we have
Find the height of the right triangle applying the Pythagorean Theorem
The radius of the semicircle is half the height of triangle
substitute in the formula
Answer:
x = 5 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using substitution.
Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y
2x + 1y = 25
x + y = 20
These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).
For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.
ACTUAL WORK
Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x
x = 25 - y / 2
Replace x with y in the second equation
(25 - y / 2) + y = 20
And solve for y
y = 15
Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is
x + 15 = 20
Solve for x
x = 5
