Conclusion : the difference of 2 positive numbers is always positive.
7 - 3 = 4, 8 - 5 = 3, 9 - 8 = 1

Counter example : 3 - 7 = -4 , 5 - 8 = -3, 8 - 9 = -1

The statement is False.

For this, it is enough to show a case in which the subtraction of two positive numbers is negative.

For this, we must choose two numbers.

Suppose we want to subtract the following numbers:

Number 1: 5

Number 2: 10

Subtracting both numbers we have:

5 - 10 = -5

We observe that the result is negative. Therefore, the given conclusion is false.

Answer:

Counterexample:

5-10 = -5

Which of the following transformations are used when transforming the graph of the parent function...
hram777 [196]

1. 1st transformation is translation the parent function y=\log_5x 6 units to the right to get the function y=\log_5(x-6).

2. 2nd transformation is reflection the function y=\log_5(x-6) over the x-axis. This transformation gives you the function y=-\log_5(x-6).

3. 3rd transformation is vertical stretch of the function y=-\log_5(x-6) by a factor of 2 to get the function y=-2\log_5(x-6).

Only last two are present in options, then

answer: C and D.

4(3y – 6) = -3(8 – 4y)
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

0=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(3y−6)=−3(8−4y)

(4)(3y)+(4)(−6)=(−3)(8)+(−3)(−4y)(Distribute)

12y+−24=−24+12y

12y−24=12y−24

Step 2: Subtract 12y from both sides.

12y−24−12y=12y−24−12y

−24=−24

Step 3: Add 24 to both sides.

−24+24=−24+24

0=0

Though the chocolate chip cookies can make 43 packs, the sugar cookies cannot fulfill the extra pack for it only has 42 pieces. That is why the maximum number of package that  has identical content is 42 packages.
