Answer:
-5 and -5.5;
-12.5 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Two negative addends, can be added together to give -10.5.
For example:
(-5) + (-5.5) = -5 - 5.5 = -10.5
Also, it is possible for one of the addends to be negative while the other is positive, and their sum will give us -10.5.
For example:
The sum of -12.5 and 2 will give us -10.5.
We are adding a positive and a negative number here. As usual, we will subtract the smaller number from the bigger number, while the result will carry the sign of the bigger number, which in this case is negative sign.
Thus:
(-12.5) + (2) = -10.5
Answer:
what am i supposed to help with??
Step-by-step explanation:
2.5y + 3x = 27
5x - 2.5y = 5
Align the variables to make solving this easier.
2.5y + 3x = 27
-2.5y + 5x = 5
You can see that the 2.5y and -2.5y cancel each other out. Then add the 3x and 5x, and 27 + 5.
3x = 27
5x = 5
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 4
Now input that x into one of the equations to get y.
2.5y + 3(4) = 27
2.5y + 12 = 27
2.5y = 15
y = 6
The answer to this system of equations is x = 4, y = 6. (4, 6)
Assuming point Z is at the origin (0,0), you move from the origin over to the right one, and go down 8.
Therefore you would be at point (1,-8) answer D
Answer:
c. (5, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
as we can clearly see, the 4th vertex has to be on the positive side of x.
therefore, all answer options with negative x are out.
(2, -5) is almost at D (-1, 5). that cannot be right for a rectangle.
that leaves only c as right answer.
FYI - how to get this without predefined answer portions ?
the x- difference of B to A is 4 (from -5 to -1). the x-difference from D to C must be the same (4). 1 + 4 = 5.
so, x of D must be 5.
the y- difference of B to A is 3 (from 3 to 6). the y-difference from D to C must be the same (3). -5 + 3 = -2.
so, y of D must be -2.
