Answer:
-1/24
Step-by-step explanation:
-7/8 - (-5/6)
Subtracting a negative is like adding
-7/8 + 5/6
Get a common denominator
-7/8 * 6/6 + 5/6 *8/8
-42/48 + 40/46
-2/48
-1/24
The concept useful in finding the answer to this item is ratio and proportion, the ratio of the height of your friend with the shadow casted should be proportional to the height of the rock with the length of the shadow it cast. That is,
5.5 ft / 18 ft = x ft/ 209.5 ft
The value of x from the equation above is 64 ft.
3 + 4abs(x/2 + 3) = 11 Subtract 3
4 abs(x/2 + 3) = 11 - 3
4 abs(x/2 + 3) = 8 Divide by 4
abs(x/2 + 3) = 8/4
abs(x/2 + 3) = 2
Solution 1
x/2 + 3 = 2 Subtract 3
x/2 = 2 - 3
x/2 = - 1 Multiply by 2
x/2 *2 = - 2
x = - 2
Solution 2
x/2 + 3 = - 2
x/2 = - 2 - 3
x/2 = - 5 Multiply by 2
x = -5 * 2
x = -10
Solutions
x = - 2 <<<< answer 1
x = -10 <<<< answer 2
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Following Order of Operations rules, we evaluate anything within parentheses first:
8-[12-(-4)] = 8 - 16 = -8
Answer: 464 km²
Step-by-step explanation:
We will break this shape up into two parts. You can do this in two different ways, see attached for how I did it.
Area of a rectangle is A = L * W;
40 km * 9 km = 360 km²
13km * 8 km = 104 km²
Now we will add them together for total area:
360 km² + 104 km² = 464 km²
