Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

To add a positive number and a negative number do this:

1. Keep the positive number as it is.

2. Make the negative number positive by dropping the negative sign.

3. Using the two positive numbers, subtract the smaller number from the larger number.

4. The sign of the answer is the same sign as the larger original number.

Now that you see the rule above, I'll do your problem one step at a time.

1. Keep the positive number as it is. 16 remains as 16.

2. -4 becomes 4.

3. Subtract the smaller number form the large number: 16 - 4 = 12.

4. The original numbers were -4 and 16. 16 is greater than 4, and 16 is positive, so our answer is positive.

Answer: -4 + 16 = 12

The Fernando family spends $800 per month on rent. If this is 15% of their monthly budget, then what is their monthly budget?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

$5,333.33

Step-by-step explanation:

If the a month spent on rent is a percentage of the monthly budget of the  Fernando family, it means that the product of the percentage and the monthly budget gives the amount spent on rent.

Let the monthly budget be T (measured in $). Given that  the family spends $800 per month on rent and this is 15% of their monthly budget, it means that

15% * T = 800

T = 800/15%

= 800 * 20/3

= $5,333.33

The family's monthly budget is $5,333.33

Need help ASAP! due soon!!!
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

First make x = 4 and y = 3 in the equation y = -1/2x + 5

it should look like 3 = -1/2(4) + 5 now we can solve

   -1/2 * 4 = -2         →      3 = -2 +5

       -2 + 5 = 3         →          3 = 3

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,2)(−5,2) and has a slope of 4/5?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

30 = 5y - 4x or 6 + (4x/5) = y (in mx + c = y form)

Step-by-step explanation:

slope =

y_{2} - y_{1}/ x_{2} - x_{1}

now, y_{2} = 2

x_{2} = -5

insert the values of these two in the slope formula and equate it with 4/5.

by cross multiplication, obtain equation.

the equation is 30 = 5y-4x.

hope this helps you!

Nick was surveying his field and saw some cows and ducks. Nick counted a total of 80 heads and
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

<u>44 cows and 36 ducks.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

x is ducks and y is cows.

Assuming both have 1 head each, we can write:

x + y = 80.

Let's assume each x(cow) has 4 legs and each y(duck) has two legs.

Then we can add the numbers of legs:

2x + 4y = 248 legs

Now rearrange x + y = 80 to:

x = 80-y

and substitute:

2x + 4y = 248 legs

2(80-y) + 4y = 248 legs

160 - 2y + 4y = 248 legs

2y = 88 legs

<u>y = 44   [There are 44 cows]</u>

Use this value to find the number of ducks:

x + y = 80

44 + y = 80

<u>y = 36  [There are 36 ducks]</u>

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

Check:

Do 44 cows and 36 ducks have a total of 248 legs?

4*44 + 2*36 = 248 ?

176 + 72 = 248?

<u>YES</u>
