Using the Multiplication Property of -1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Papessa [141]4 years ago
7 0

A. -(a+5)

Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:

-(a+5) * -1 = a+5


B. -(-x+31)

Apply the distributive property:

-(-x+31) becomes (- -x +31) which simplifies to (x+31)

multiply that by -1 to get -x+31


C. -(4x+12)

Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:

-(4x+12) * -1 = 4x+12

What is the difference between an irrational number and an integer? (PLZ HELP ME ANSWER ASAP!!!! All help is appreciated! :D)
enot [183]
So, first off it would help if you could define the terms irrational number and integer. Well, an irrational number is basically any real number that can't be expressed as a ratio of integers. They also cannot be represented by terminating or continuing decimals. And an integer is pretty much any number that cannot be written as a fraction or decimal, such as -2, 13, 257. It is not 2 and 1/2, or 4.75. Those would not be integers. Do you think you can figure out the difference?
