Answer:
(-8) + (+17) = -8 + 17 = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Level of water in the first week = - 8 (the negative sign represents a decrease in inches, of the level of water)
Level of water during the second week = + 17 (the positive sign represents an increase, in inches, of the level of water).
These changes in the level of water can be modelled as sum of a positive and a negative integer as follows:
(-8) + (+17)
When adding a negative and a positive integer value, subtract the smaller value from the greater value, and retain the sign of the value that is greater.
17 is greater than 8. Therefore, subtract 8 from 17, and retain the sign of 17.
Thus:
(-8) + (+17) = -8 + 17
= 9
Answer:
perimeter= 152in
Step-by-step explanation:
Davis's claim was incorrect because a rectangle sometimes only have 2 congruent sides. Drawing a rectangle, the length/width would be longer than their length/width. Unless it is a square, it counts as correct as a square can be counted as a rectangle and a rectangle can not be counted as a square but anyways, congruent means equal sides. The rectangle, mostly drawn, only has two long sizes and two short sides, both opposides are equal. Hence, the claim Davis said is incorrect.
Answer:
12 rectangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 going up the sides,
and 4 along the top and bottom.
3 time 4 is 12 rectangles.
Answer:
D would be the correct answer.
As you can see in the second equation, y is already isolated. So, we can substitute it into the first equation, to solve for x.
Let me know if this helps!
