Hey there!

1. To solve 9 x 5 , I could add the number 9 five times . . .

9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 45

9 x 5 = 45 <----

2. I would use the same strategy as the first one, except add the number 8 five times . . .

8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 40

8 x 5 = 40 <----

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

The sum of two numbers is 12. The difference of the same two numbers is 24. what is the larger of the two numbers

Vsevolod [243]

ANSWER

The larger number is 18

EXPLANATION

Let x be the larger number and y be the smaller number.

Then,

$x+y=12--(1)$

$x-y=24--(2)$

Let us add equation (1) and (2).

$2x=36$

Divide through by 2

$x=18$

Put $x=18$ in to equation (1).

This implies that,

$18=y=12$

$y=12-18=-6$

Which of the following is an example of the atmosphere interacting with the biosphere?

Vilka [71]

I’d say option 4

However, one may think option 3 might be possible as well. But that it is not interacting, it’s affecting.

So I’d stick with option 4.

Good luck!

URGENT: If θ is a second-quadrant angle and cosθ = -2/3, then tanθ = _____.

dangina [55]

In the second quadrant, both cos and tan are negative while only sin is positive.

To find tan, we will use the following property below:

$\large \boxed{ {tan}^{2} \theta = {sec}^{2} \theta - 1}$

Sec is the reciprocal of cos. If cos is a/b then sec is b/a. Since cos is 2/3 then sec is 3/2

$\large{ {tan}^{2} \theta = {( - \frac{3}{2}) }^{2} - 1} \\ \large{ {tan}^{2} \theta = \frac{9}{4} - 1} \\ \large{ {tan}^{2} \theta = \frac{9}{4} - \frac{4}{4} \longrightarrow \frac{5}{4} } \\ \large{tan \theta = \frac{ \sqrt{5} }{ \sqrt{4} } } \\ \large \boxed{tan \theta = \frac{ \sqrt{5} }{2} }$
