Answer:

a fraction like 1/2 and its opposite -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition two numbers are opposite if their distance to 0 is the same.

distance to 0 for 1/2 = 1/2 - 0 = 1/2

distance to 0 for -1/2 = 0 - (-1/2) = 1/2

since both have the same distance, they are opposite with each other

Another way to verify it , is that the sum of the 2 values should be 0. in our case,

1/2 + (-1/2) = 1/2 - 1/2 = 0

Estimate the annual wages for a clerk who works 50 weeks a year and earns $15 and hour

Pachacha [2.7K]

Let us assume that a person works for 8 hours a day.

Let us assume that the person works for 5 days a week.

Wage earned per hour = $15

So, wage earned in 8 hours = 15*8 = $120

Now, wage earned in 1 day = 120

So, wage earned in 5 days = 120*5 =$600

As the person works for 5 days in 1 week

So, in 50 weeks, he will work = 50*5 = 250 days

So, total number of hours he must have worked = 250*8 =2000 hours

Now, per hour wage = $15

wage in 2000 hours = 15*2000 = $30000

Hence, the estimated wage a person earns in 50 weeks = $30000

A navigator plots the course a plane is currently traveling. The plane is 300 miles from its destination. If it continues on its

inna [77]

We have to use the rule of cosx° to solve this problem. Attached is a diagram of the navigator's course for the plane. It is similar to the shape of a triangle. We know the plane is 300 miles from its destination, so that will be one of the sides. On the current course, it is 325 miles from its destination, so that will be another one of the sides. The last side is 125 because that is the distance between the destination and the anticipated arrival. Cosx° is what we are looking for.

To find how many degrees off course the plane is, we must use the rules of Cosx°, which is shown in the attached image.

The plane is approximately 23° off course.
