Answer:
The sum is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
When you add a negative number to a positive number, it is basically just subtracting the negative from the positive. To make it simple, 5 + -4 is just 5 - 4.
Hannah was wrong in saying you take the sign of the larger number because it would not matter if the first number was a million, the signs don't change based on the size of numbers.
Let x=balloon swords
let x+4=balloon dogs (four more than x is x+4)
let x+7=balloon hats (three more than x+4 is x+7)
the answer is x+7
I don't know how to correctly explain the second answer (although I do know that it is 1)
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
In this particular scenario, based on the numbers I would say that it does not make sense to represent this with a constant rate. That is because in a span of three years the change between each year is completely different, for example, between the first and second year there was a change of
9.75 - 8.50 = 1.25 dollar change
1.25 / 8.50 = 0.147 or a 14.7% increase
Between the second and third year, there was a change of
12 - 9.75 = 2.25 dollar change
2.25 / 9.75 = 0.23 or 23% increase
Therefore, each year the percent and dollar value increase is increasing more and more which would not be a constant rate.
