Answer:

(-8) + (+17) = -8 + 17 = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Level of water in the first week = - 8 (the negative sign represents a decrease in inches, of the level of water)

Level of water during the second week = + 17 (the positive sign represents an increase, in inches, of the level of water).

These changes in the level of water can be modelled as sum of a positive and a negative integer as follows:

(-8) + (+17)

When adding a negative and a positive integer value, subtract the smaller value from the greater value, and retain the sign of the value that is greater.

17 is greater than 8. Therefore, subtract 8 from 17, and retain the sign of 17.

Thus:

(-8) + (+17) = -8 + 17

= 9

Mila [183]

Answer: There are 25 FTEs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hour week for full time employee = 40 hours

In a month we know that

Number of weeks = 4

Total number of hours in a month would be

40\times 4\\\\=160\ hours

If in last month, the hotel's 80 employees worked a total of 4000 hours,

So, Full time equivalent workers were employed by the hotel last month would be

\dfrac{4000}{160}\\\\=25

Hence, there are 25 FTEs.

You are right to circle both 10 or 12. Neither can be solved without knowing something about the x values in 10 and the x value of the smaller base in 12.

2. Two puppies together weigh 22 kilograms 300 grams. If one
monitta

Answer:

B = 12800 grams or 12kg 800 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two puppies be A and B respectively.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

A + B = 22kg 300g

A = 9kg 500g

Conversion;

1 Kilograms = 1000 grams.

9kg 500g = 9*1000 + 500 = 9500 grams

22kg 300g = 22*1000 + 300 = 22300 g

Substituting into the above formula, we have;

9500 + B = 22300

B = 22300 - 9500

B = 12800 grams or 12kg 800 grams

vichka [17]

Answer:

B. y + 2 = ½(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Insert the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT signs. Remember, in the Point-Slope Formula, <em>y</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em>₁</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>(</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>₁</em><em>)</em><em>,</em><em> </em>all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE term of what they really are.
