Simplify -4 + (-3) + 6

1 answer:

3 0

Start off with: -4 + (-3) + 6

First of all, when there is a, + sign and a - sign next to each other, the - side wins. E.g. 1 +- 3 = 1 - 3

So, apply this to our one:
-4 -3 +6

From there you solve, you can do this using the number line method or whatever you are into:
=-7 + 6
=-1
The answer is -1

Molly wants her rectangular rooftop garden plot to have an area of 21 square feet. If she makes the width 5 feet, what must be t

Over [174]

Area = length x width
21 = length x 5
length = 21/5 = 4.2

The length is inversely proportional to the width because as the length increases the width reduces and vice-versa

The length of a side of a triangle is 36. A line parallel to that side divides the triangle into two parts of equal area. Find t

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Length of BE is $\frac{36}{\sqrt2}units$

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a side of a triangle is 36. A line parallel to that side divides the triangle into two parts of equal area. we have to find the length of the segment determined by the points of intersection between the line and the other two sides of the triangle.

Now, the two parts of triangle have equal area ∴ ar(ADE)=ar(BDEC)

⇒ $ar(ADE)=\frac{1}{2}ar(ABC)$
