Find the difference <br><br><br> 15 - (-15)
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that, when two negative signs are directly next to each other, they mean addition. Note the rule:

A positive sign & A positive sign = Positive number.

A positive sign & A negative sign = Negative number.

A negative sign & A negative sign = Positive number.

In this case:

- (-15) = + 15

Simplify. Combine like terms:

15 + 15 = 30

30 is your answer.

(w-2) (w+5) <br> I need help I don't understand ...
Phantasy [73]
<h3>Answer: w^2 + 3w - 10</h3>

===============================================

Work Shown:

Let x = w-2

This will allow us to replace the (w-2) with x to get...

(w-2)(w+5)

x(w+5)

x*w + x*5 ... distribute

w(x) + 5(x)

Now replace x with w-2 and distribute again

w(x) + 5(x)

w(w-2) + 5(w-2)

w*w + w*(-2) + 5*w + 5*(-2)

w^2 - 2w + 5w - 10

w^2 + 3w - 10

Which represents the solution(s) of the graphed system of equations, y = x2 – 2x and y = –2x – 1? (1, –1) (0, 0) and (0, –1) (0,
olganol [36]

ANSWER

No solution

EXPLANATION

The first equation is

y =  {x}^{2}  - 2x

and the second equation is

y =  - 2x  - 1

We equate the two equations to obtain;

{x}^{2}  - 2x =  - 2x - 1

This implies that

{x}^{2}  =  - 2x + 2x - 1

{x}^{2}  =  - 1

There is no real number whose square is -1.

Therefore, the equation has no solution.
