16: -7(5)= -35 ( REMEMBER THE MOUTH EATS THE BIGGEST NUMBER!)
-6(-6)= 36 therefore 36 is greater than -35
18: they are exactly the same because in multiplication with inters it matters when the signs change. so 3(-6) = -18 ad -3(6)= -18 then -18=-18
20: Same as 18 where division has the same rules. if 8x5=40 then 40/8=5
-40/8=-5 and 40/(-8)=-5 then -5=-5
answers:
So what you do is (2/3)x-9=7. Add 9 to both sides (2/3)x=16. Multiply by reciprocal on both sides 16 x (3/2). 16 x 3 = 48. 48/2=24
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
BEST estimate of this amount is 
. Correct option A. 2 x 10^7 .
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , Hoover Dam spans the Colorado River on the Nevada-Arizona state line. For its construction, the federal government purchased 21,670,000 pounds of gates and valves. We need to find BEST estimate of this amount . Let's find out:
21,670,000 pounds
⇒ 21,670,000 pounds
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Now, Rounding of 2.167 we get 2 ,So
⇒
Hence , BEST estimate of this amount is . Correct option A. 2 x 10^7 .
Answer:
216°
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the sum of smallest and largest to the total of all angles is ...
(9 +15)/(9 +10 +12 +14 +15) = 24/60 = 0.4
__
The total of all angles in an n-gon is 180°(n -2), so the total of all angles in a pentagon is ...
180°(5 -2) = 540°
Then the sum of smallest and largest angles is ...
0.4(540°) = 216°
