Take apart the number to make a 10. Then subtract.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Licemer1 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This is one of a variety of "subtraction solutions"--basically a different way to subtract by breaking numbers down into 10-digit chunks.  It's not especially helpful for small subtraction problems, but as math gets more complicated, this method will come in handy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's an example: Jim had a bag of 15 jelly beans.  He eats 8.  How many jelly beans does he have left?  <u>Take apart the number to make a 10. Then subtract.</u>

Here, you need to "take apart" the 8 to make your 15 jelly beans 10, then you subtract the remainder of 8 to get your solution.  In other words,

 --"take apart" 8 into 5 and 3 (because you're going to need a 5 to make 15 into 10).  15 minus 5 equals 10.  HOORAY!  You have your 10.  Now, subtract the remaining 3.  10 minus 3 equals 7.  Huzzah--your final answer!

On paper, the problem looks like this:

<u>15 - 8 (</u><u>5, 3</u><u>) = ?</u>

15 - 5 = 10

10 - 3 = 7

So...15 - 8 = 7

What is the following product 3/x^2 4/x^3??
Alborosie

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  12/x^5

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions are multiplied in the usual way. The applicable rule of exponents is ...

  (x^a)(x^b) = x^(a+b)

__

  \dfrac{3}{x^2}\cdot\dfrac{4}{x^3}=\dfrac{3\cdot4}{x^2\cdot x^3}=\dfrac{12}{x^{2+3}}=\boxed{\dfrac{12}{x^5}}

Prove that an = 4^n + 2(-1)^nis the solution to
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to verify that if we substitute a_n=4^n+2(-1)^n in the equation a_n=3a_{n-1}+4a_{n-2} the equality is true.

Let's substitute first in the right hand side:

3a_{n-1}+4a_{n-2}=3(4^{n-1}+2(-1)^{n-1})+4(4^{n-2}+2(-1)^{n-2})

Now we use the distributive laws. Also, note that (-1)^{n-1}=\frac{1}{-1}(-1)^n=(-1)(-1)^{n} (this also works when the power is n-2).

=3(4^{n-1})+6(-1)^{n-1}+4(4^{n-2})+8(-1)^{n-2}

=3(4^{n-1})+(-1)(6)(-1)^{n}+4^{n-1}+(-1)^2(8)(-1)^{n}

=4(4^{n-1})-6(-1)^{n}+8(-1)^{n}=4^n+2(-1)^n=a_n

then the sequence solves the recurrence relation.

max2010maxim [7]
The answer is $240.

If you round each amount to the nearest ten you get $130.00, $60.00, and 50.00. When you add all of those together you get an estimated amount of $240.
