Which question is the same as -4 - (-2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
denis23 [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

-4 + 2 = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 -(-2) uses the process of cancellation. -(-2) is equal to positive 2, since the negatives cancel out. -4 + 2 is left, which equals -2.

Subtracting a negative from a negative is like subtracting a positive from a positive. It is even like 1-1. Once you subtract one from another, nothing is left.

What is the value of x?
BlackZzzverrR [31]
We can use the Pythagorean theorum

a^2+b^2=c^2

c^2 is the length of the longest side squared

so 

6^2 + b^2 = 10^2

36+ b^2 = 100
-36               -36

b^2 = 64

b = 8

b is the same thing as your "x", so x = 8

Find -2/3 divided by 4/6<br> -1<br> 4/9<br> -9/4<br> 1
nalin [4]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

-\frac{2}{3}\div \frac{4}{6}

We multiply by the reciprocal to get:

-\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{6}{4}

We factor so that we can cancel easily:

-\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{3\times 2}{2\times 2}

Cancel the common factors to get:

-\frac{1}1}\times \frac{1\times 2}{1\times 2}

This simplifies to:

-1

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting each equation in standard form is a good start.

1. Divide the first equation by 2. Divide the second equation by -5.

  • x +2y = 2
  • x - y = -1

2. Divide the first equation by 2; multiply the second by -1.

  • x +2y = 2
  • 3x -y = 1

3. Divide the first equation by 2.

  • x +2y = 2
  • 7x +5y = -1

4. Divide the first equation by 2.

  • x +2y = 2
  • 7x -y = 5

5. Divide the first equation by 2.

  • x +2y = 2
  • 7x -y = -1
