If a number is divided by a negative number will the outcome be positive?

1 answer:

7 0

That would depend...

-4 / -2 = 2........4 / 2 = 2 <== if the signs are the same
but
4 / -2 = -2.......-4 / 2 = -2 <== if the signs are different

So basically, if the signs are the same, the result is positive and if the signs are different, the result is negative

Find out the Range coefficient of the range

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

0.4494

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

marks number of students

20-29 8

30-39 12

40-49 20

50-59 7

60-69 3

The range Coefficient is obtained thus :

Range Coefficient = (Xm - Xl) / (Xm + Xl)

Where ;

Xm = Mid value of highest class = (60+69)/2 = 64.5

Xl = Mid value of lowest class = (20+29)/2 = 24.5

Range Coefficient = (64.5 - 24.5) / (64.5 + 24.5)

Range Coefficient = 40 / 89 = 0.4494

What is the quotient (3x4 + 4x – 15) + (x + 3)?

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

3x-5 and r=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do it by long division method the required quotient is 3x-5 and r=0

not 3x-1 , r=1

multiply the divisor with 3x we will get to cancel out the first term of dividend

Now after solving we will get

Now, multiply the divisor by -5 we will get -5x-15 which will cancel the entire dividend.
