What is addition and subtraction

choli [55]

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textsf{What is addition \& subtraction?}$

$\huge\textbf{What is addition?}$

$\bullet\large\textbf{ Well, \underline{addition} simply means when you're ADDING}\\\large\textbf{2 or more numbers from each other to get the result of}\\\large\textbf{a number.}$

$\huge\textbf{Random notes}$

$\star\large\textbf{ Usually, you start working with addition when you're in}\\\large\textbf{pre-kindergarten (pre-k also known as head-start)}\\\\\star\large\textbf{ When, you're adding you are going upward.}\\\\\star\large\textbf{ Addition sometimes come after you learn how to count}\\\large\textbf{the basic numbers and so forth because adding never}\\\large\textbf{ends if you really think about.}$

$\huge\textbf{Example:}$

$\heartsuit\large\textbf{ 2 \boxed{\bf +} 5 = 7}\\\\\\\heartsuit\large\textbf{ You got the result of 7 because you started at 2 \& went}\\\larg\textbf{up 5 spaces to your right on your number and you landed}\\\large\textbf{on 7.}$

$\huge\textbf{What is subtraction?}$

$\bullet\large\textbf{ Well, subtraction simply means you're taking away. Often}\\\large\textbf{people call it take aways.}$

$\huge\textbf{Random notes:}$

$\star\large\textbf{ Usually, you start working with subtraction when you're}\\\large\textbf{in pre-kindergarten (pre-k also known as headstart)}\\\\\star\large\textbf{When you're subtracting you are doing downward.}\\\\\star\large\textbf{You focus more on subtraction when you're counting}\\\large\textbf{backwards.}$

$\huge\textbf{Example:}$

$\heartsuit\large\textbf{ 7 \boxed{\bf -} 5 = 2 }\\\\\\\heartsuit\large\textbf{ 7 \boxed{\bf -} 2 = 5}\\\\\\\heartsuit\large\textbf{ For equation \#1. you begin at 7 and go BACK 5 spaces}\\\large\textbf{and you should have landed on 2.}\\\\\\\heartsuit\large\textbf{ For equation \#2. you begin at 7 \& go BACK 2 spaces}\\\large\textbf{and you should have landed on 5.}$

$\huge\textsf{KEEP IN MIND:}$

$\circ\large\textsf{ Addition OPPOSITE is subtraction \& subtraction OPPOSITE is}\\\large\textsf{addition.}$

Jim’s football team started a play on the 50 yard line. On the first play, the team had a 7-yard gain. On the second play, they

lawyer [7]

This is a basic addition/subtraction question. It's saying that they started at the 50 yard line. On the play, they gained 7 yards. So, we'll add 50+7 = 57.

They're at the 57 yard line at this point. On the second play they lost 10 yards (how unfortunate). Thereby, we will subtract 57-10=47.

50 yards +7 yards. -10 yards.

The answer will be that they'll be on the 47 yard line on the next play.

Ill give you Brainlyest! I need help ASAP work shown, please!!<br> problems 8-15

8_murik_8 [283]

Using the segment addition theorem, the solutions are:

5. x = 17

6. x = 7

7. x = 14

BC = 27

CD = 61

BD = 88

8. AB = 26

9. LJ = 46

10. x = 3

11. FG = 15

12. QS = 34

13. BC = 26

14. EG = 19

15. QS = 68

<h3>How to Apply the Segment Addition Theorem?</h3>

The segment addition theorem would be used to solve the problems as shown below:

5. UW = UV + VW [segment addition theorem]

Substitute

6x - 35 = 19 + 4x - 20

6x - 4x = 35 + 19 - 20

2x = 34

x = 17

6. HJ = HI + IJ [segment addition theorem]

Substitute

7x - 27 = 3x - 5 + x - 1

7x - 3x - x = 27 - 5 - 1

3x = 21

x = 7

7. BD = BC + CD [segment addition theorem]

Substitute

7x - 10 = 4x - 29 + 5x - 9

7x - 4x - 5x = 10 - 29 - 9

-2x = -28

x = 14

BC = 4x - 29 = 4(14) - 29 = 27

CD = 5x - 9 = 5(14) - 9 = 61

BD = 7x - 10 = 7(14) - 10 = 88

8. BC = BD

Substitute

2x + 1 = 5x - 26

2x - 5x = -1 - 26

-3x = -27

x = 9

AB = 43 - BC

AB = 43 - 2x + 1 = 43 - 2(9) + 1 = 26

9. 7x - 10 = 9x - 11 - (x + 3)

7x - 10 = 9x - 11 - x - 3

7x - 9x + x = 10 - 11 - 3

-x = -4

x = 4

LJ = 28 + 7x - 10 = 28 + 7(4) - 10

LJ = 46

10. 8x + 11 = 12x - 1

8x - 12x = -11 - 1

-4x = -12

x = 3

11. 11x - 7 = 3x + 9

11x - 3x = 7 + 9

8x = 16

x = 2

FG = 11x - 7 = 11(2) - 7

FG = 15

12. 5x - 3 = 21 - x

5x + x = 21 + 3

6x = 24

x = 4

QS = 2(5x - 3) = 10x - 6 = 10(4) - 6

QS = 34

13. 8x - 20 = 2(3x - 1)

8x - 20 = 6x - 2

8x - 6x = 20 - 2

2x = 18

x = 9

BC = AB = 3x - 1 = 3(9) - 1

BC = 26

14. 5x - 1 = 7x - 13

5x - 7x = 1 - 13

-2x = -12

x = 6

EG = 6x - 4 - 13 = 6(6) - 4 - 13

EG = 19

15. RT - ST = RS

Substitute

8x - 43 - (4x - 1) = 2x - 4

8x - 43 - 4x + 1 = 2x - 4

4x - 42 = 2x - 4

4x - 2x = 42 - 4

2x = 38

x = 19

QS = 2(RS)

QS = 2(2x - 4) = 4x - 8 = 4(19) - 8

QS = 68

Show me how to work the equation 30-f+8f=30

ELEN [110]

30-f+8f=30

30+7f=30

Move +30 to the right side. Sign changes from +30 to -30.

30-30+7f=30-30

7f=0

Divde by 7

7f/7=0/7

Cross out 7 and 7, divide by 7. Becomes 1*1*f=f

f=0

Answer: f=0
