Step-by-step explanation:
Well in general, we can represent subtraction as: 
"z" represents the difference, and it really just represents x with y taken away. So if we were to "give back" this y value, we should get "x".
This means that: 
So one way to check, is adding the value that's being subtracted (y value) and the difference (z value), this should get you the value that is being subtracted from (x value). If you don't get the original value that's being subtracted from (x-value) then you know the answer you got is wrong.

Answer:
9 oz less
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference is 75% of 12 oz, so is ...
0.75 · 12 oz = 9 oz
The regular bottle holds 9 ounces less.
Answer:
18750
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the vertex of the parabola we proceed as follows;
y=-7(x-4)^2-5
The above can be written as:
y=-7x^2+56x-117
The values of a,b and c are:
a=-7, b=56 and c=-117
x=-b/(2a)
x=-56/(-7*2)=4
but;
y=-7x^2+56x-117
y=-7(4)^2+56(4)-117
y=-5
Thus;
x=4 and y=-5
The vertex will be at point (4,-5)
Answer:
The greatest common factor is 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Greatest common factor is 6. If you use the distributive property then the answer would be 6(4) + 6(6) or 6(4+6). Then you distribute the 6 to each digit and should get 24+36.
