If something is negative then it is decreasing. We can express this in terms of velocity per second.

"A car is traveling backwards. What is its velocity if it travels 85 miles in 15 seconds"

This is the easiest word problem I can think of. (When a car travels backwards it has a negative velocity but a positive speed).

The balance in my bank account went down $85 in 15 days. How much did it change per day. Use a positive number to represent a gain of money and a negative number to represent a loss of money.

The change in balance is a loss of money, so the change is -85.

The change of -85 occurred in 15 days, so the average change per day is

-85/15

There's so many numbers in this one shape I'm confused ._.
Svetlanka [38]
The answer should be 12 units^2

starting from the left side of the shape you multiply base 2 by height 2 which gets 4 then divide by 2 since it is a triangle. next multiply 2x2 for the square in the middle which gets you 4. lastly multiply 6x2 for the triangle on the right which gets you 12 however bc it is a triangle you must divide by 2 and get 6. then add them all together and you get 12.
