Mathematics

Dmitrij [34]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

No, it's not

Step-by-step explanation:

A set is closed under a particular operation if the results of said operation still belong to the set.

So, this set is not closed under subtraction because if we take two of its elements, for example 5 and 8, the result of their subtraction 8-5=3 doesn't belong to the set.

A road crew takes 4/7 of an hour to pave seven miles of road. How long will it take the crew to pave one mile of road? Plz help
Galina-37 [17]

7 miles divided by 4/7 hour

copy dot flip

7 miles * 7/4 hour

49/4 miles/ hour


d = rt

1 miles = 49/4 * t

divide each side by 49/4

1 / (49/4) = t

4/49 =t

it takes 4/49 of an hour

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (4,1)
Kobotan [32]
The slope will be the same, so we know the equation will be y=-2x+b. But there is a different b.

For x=4, y will be 1 because the point (4,1) is given.

So 1=-2*4 + b => b = 9

So the equation of our parallel line is y=-2x+9

If we subtract 1 from both sides, we get y-1 = -2x + 8
Then factor out -2 on the right hand side: y-1 = -2(x - 4)

That's answer A!
