Triangles MNP & MAB are similar (NP//AB & Angle A= Angle N (correspondent) Same for P & B

We know that MA = 67.2 -3.2 = 35.2
Since Triangles MNP & MAB are similar , then we can write the following ratio:

MN/MA=MP/MB or 67.2/35.2 =81.9/x
& x= 43 m

3. Emma said that when you multiply three negative decimals , the product will be positive . Use these numbers to answer the que
mina [271]

Using multiplication signal rules, it is found that:

A: Emma's statement is always false.

B: The result is always negative.

C: Emma's statement is always true.

The rule used for this exercise is as follows:

  • When two numbers of different signals are multiplied, the result is negative.
  • When two numbers have the same signal, the result is positive.

Part A:

  • Three numbers are multiplied, all negative.
  • The multiplication of the first two result in a positive number.
  • Then, this positive number is multiplied by a negative number, and the result will be negative, which mean that Emma's statement is always false.

Two examples are:

-2.5(-3.8)(-2) = 9.5(-2) = -19

-2.5(-2)(-0.7) = 5(-0.7) = -3.5

Part B:

The rule is that the result is always negative.

Part C:

  • The multiplication of the first two negative numbers result in a positive number.
  • Then, this positive number is multiplied by another positive number, and the result will be positive, which mean that Emma's statement is always true.

Two examples are:

-2.5(-3.8)(2) = 9.5(2) = 19

-2.5(-2)(0.7) = 5(0.7) = 3.5

The product of two positive integers is 176. One number is 5 more than the other. Find the smaller number.
svlad2 [7]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

11



Discussion:

Let "n" be the smaller number. Then

n * (n+5) = 176.


My first reaction to this problem was to factor 176 in my head. That's  176 = 16 * 11 and 16 is 5 more than 11. So that's the solution!.... Now let's solve it using the brute force approach:

n(n+5) = 176                 =>

n^2 + 5n - 176 = 0       => use the quadratic formula


n =     ( -5 +\- sqrt( 5^2 - 4(1)(-176)) )  /2

 =     ( -5 +\- sqrt( 25 +  704) )/ 2

=     ( -5 +\- sqrt (729) ) /2                            => as sqrt(729) = 27

=      (-5 +\- 27) / 2                                        =>

=      (-5 + 27)/2 or ( -5 -27)/2                      =>

=      22/2  or  -32/2                                     =>

=      11 or  -16


But -16 is not allowed as the question wants a positive value.



Thank you,

MrB
