Yes. Think of it like this. You borrowed $1 from your friend for a candy bar. You now have -$1 because you owe your friend money. If you ask your friend for another $5 because you found another thing you wanted you have -$6. When you already have a negative, you are subtracting even more from that, which brings you to an even higher negative number

The graph of f ′ (x), the derivative of f of x, is continuous for all x and consists of five line segments as shown below. Given

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

f(0) - f(-3) = area under f'(x) from x=0 to x=3.

We can find the area under f'(x) in this interval by finding the area of the triangle formed by the line.

A = 1/2 b h

A = 1/2 (3) (3)

A = 4.5

f(0) - f(-3) = 4.5

Since f(0) = 7:

7 - f(-3) = 4.5

f(-3) = 7 - 4.5

f(-3) = 2.5

An archaeologist is categorizing the artifacts he has discovered. Two-thirds of the artifacts are shards of pottery. One-eighth

Reika [66]

Answer:

Personal items=15

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Total number of artifacts = 72.

We are told that 2/3 of total artifacts are shards of pottery.

$\text{Shards of pottery}=72*\frac{2}{3} =24*2=48$

We are also told that 1/8 of total artifacts are tools.

$\text{Tools}=72*\frac{1}{8}=9$

Now we will find out number of personal items by subtracting combined number of shards of pottery and tools from total number of artifacts.

$\text{ Personal items}=72-(48+9)$

$\text{ Personal items}=72-57=15$

Therefore, there are 15 personal items.
