Simplify -4(3-1)+2 ​

Mathematics

To solve this you must use the rules of PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

First we have parentheses.

-4(3 - 1) + 2

3 - 1 = 2

-4(2) + 2

We have no exponents so go on to multiplication

-4(2) + 2

-4 * 2 = -8

-8 + 2

No division so go to addition

-8 + 2

When adding a positive number with a negative number you will act as if you are subtracting the two numbers, then take the sign of the largest number  (disregarding the signs). In this case the largest number is 8 and its sign is negative. Your answer will have a negative sign.

-6

Hope this helped!

Two trains are 210 miles apart, and their speeds differ by 17 mph. Find the speed of each train if they are traveling toward eac
Marizza181 [45]
V1 - velocity first train
v2 - velocity second train
v2 > v1

v2 - v1 = 17 mph

We know, that: 
s_1+s_2=210 \ [miles] \\ \\ t_1=t_2=2h

So:

v_1=\dfrac{s_1}{t_1}=\dfrac{s_1}{2} \\ \\ v_2=\dfrac{s_2}{t_2}=\dfrac{s_2}{2} \\ \\ \\ v_1+v_2= \dfrac{s_1}{2}+\dfrac{s_2}{2} \\ \\ v_1+v_2= \dfrac{s_1+s_2}{2} \\ \\  v_1+v_2= \dfrac{210}{2}=105

NOw we've got simple system of equations:

+\begin{cases} v_2-v_1=17 \\ v_2+v_1=105\end{cases} \\ \\ 2v_2=122 \qquad /:2 \\ \\ v_2=61 \qquad [mph] \\ \\ v_2-v_1=17 \\ \\ 61-v_1=17 \\ \\ v_1=44

Velocities of these trains are  61mph  and 44mph
