- 5 + -3 = -8

hope this helps


when a negative number adds a negative number, it will be negative

when a negative number adds a positive number, whichever number (either positive or negative) take the sign of the bigger one

For example:

-4 + 3 = -1

-5 + 10 = 5



hope this helps

Hello there!

In order to solve integers we would need a number with both, positives and negatives 

Remember this method it MIGHT help you out with your assignments like these

negative + negative = positive \\ \\ positive + negative = negative \\ \\ positive + positive  = positive \\ \\ negative + positive  = negative


We have two    negatives in this problem, so this means our answer would be a positive/negative result 

So, -5 + -3 = -8

Therefore your answer would be: -8

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day/night

A total of 30 percent of the geese included in a certain migration study were male. If some of the geese migrated during the stu
Serggg [28]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>(B). </u></em>\frac{7}{12}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Let the total number of geese be = 100x

Number of Male geese = 30% = 30x

Number of Female Geese = 70x

Let us say 'kx' geese migrated from these geese.

Number of migrated Male geese = 20% of kx = kx/5

Number of migrated Female geese = 4kx/5

So,

<u>Migration rate of Male geese</u> is given by,

\frac{(\frac{kx}{5})}{30x}

<u>Migration rate of Female geese</u> is given by,

\frac{(\frac{4kx}{5})}{70x}

So,

The ratio of Migration rate of Male geese to that of Female geese is given by,

\frac{\left[\frac{(\frac{kx}{5})}{30x}\right]}{\left[\frac{(\frac{4kx}{5})}{70x}\right]}=\frac{350}{4\times 150}=\frac{7}{12}

Therefore, the<em><u> ratio of the rate of migration of Male geese to that of Female geese is,</u></em>

\frac{7}{12}

<em><u>Hence, the correct option is (B).</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

Please guys this is easy, I need help ASAP! (Giving brainliest)!
jasenka [17]

Answer:

4a. 13

4b. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-6/5 = 4 (Muti each side by 5)

2x-6 = 20

2x = 26 (Divide each side by 2)

x = 13

7- 2x/4 = 9

-2x/4 = 2 (Muti each side by 4)

-2x = 8 (Divide each side by -2)

x = -4

1. Find the value of x.<br><br> A. 90<br> B. 80<br> C. 60<br> D. 45
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

A 90

Step-by-step explanation:

multiple ways to prove this.

e.g. since the angle between the two lines from the center of the circle to the 2 tangent touching points is 90 degrees (that is the meaning of these 90 degrees here as the angle of the circle segment defined by the 2 tangent touching points and the circle center), the tangents have the same "behavior" as tan and cot = the tangents at the norm circle at 0 and 90 degrees. they hit each other outside of the circle again at 90 degrees.

another way

imagine the two right triangles of the tangents crossing point to the circle center and the tangent/circle touching points.

the Hypotenuse of each triangle is cutting the 90 degree angle of the circle segment exactly in half (due to the symmetry principle). so the angle between radius side and Hypotenuse is 90/2 = 45 degrees.

that means also the angle of such a right triangle at the tangent crossing point is 45 degrees (as the sum of all angles in a triangle must be 180, we have the remainder of 180 - 90 - 45 = 45 degrees).

the angles of both right triangles at that point are the same, and so we can add 45+45 = 90 degrees for the total angle at the tangent crossing point.
