Step-by-step explanation:
Well, in the first one, 2 degrees below zero is -2 degrees, and then it says that it dropped 14 degrees, which means it dropped -14 degrees, so to know the total amount it dropped you would just have to add -2 plus -14 which is -16 degrees, so your answer for the first question would be the last answer, -16 degrees.
For the second question, just know that whenever a negative number is BY ITSELF in parentheses, that means it is used like a positive number in the equation. So (-12) automatically becomes 12. Now, since the problem is asking for a SUM, (the answer to an ADDITION problem; when you add instead of subtract), you would turn that minus symbol to a plus symbol, and add normally to get your final answer; 30 + 12 = 42. To check if this is correct, just type in <span>30 – (–12) to a calculator and you'll get the same answer! :D
Hope this helps! :3</span>
Answer:
4.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the two fugures in the question above are similar, it means they have the same shape, even though they are if different sizes, the ratio of their corresponding sides are proportional. Thus,
18/x = 8/2
Let's solve for x as required.
We have,
18/x = 8/2
=>Cross multiply:
18 × 2 = 8 × x
36 = 8x
=>Divide both sides by 8
36/8 = x
4.5 = x
x = 4.5 ft
The first option is our answer = 4.5 ft
