The factors of 48 are:
1 x 48
2 x 24
3 x 16
4 x 12
6 x 8
and visa versa: 48 x 1 etc.
To make the product negative, one of the factors has to be positive and one has to be negative. To find the greatest sum, make the bigger number the positive factor and the smaller number the negative factor. So, -1 x 48 = -48 and the sum of -1 + 48 = 47 which would be the greatest possible sum.
Answer:
For example, 16/21
Step-by-step explanation:
Are there choices?
There is an infinite number of numbers between any two numbers.
2/3 = 14/21
6/7 = 18/21
One example of a fraction between 2/3 and 6/7 is 16/21
16/21 is between 2/3 and 6/7.
Answer:
-5.1, -5, -4.5, -4.45,-4 2/5
2nd attempt carries a price of 6% extra, so (6/100) * 548 is 32.88, so 548 + 32.88, the price is 580.88.
for the 3rd attempt 6% extra of that, (6/100) * 580.88, is 34.8528, so the price is 615.7328.
4th attempt is 6% extra of that, (6/100) * 615.7328, 36.943968, adding that will give us 652.676768.
Remember you can do anything to an eqautoin as long as you do oit to both sides
-5x=15
try to get 1x by itself
remember
(ax)/a=x when a=a
so
-5x=15
get x
divide both sides by -5
remember to flip sign
(-5x)/(-5)=15/(-5)
x=-3
answer is first one
x=-3
