Simplify -12.5 - (-4.8)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: -17.5

Step-by-step explanation:Use this rule:

1. -a-b=-(a+b)−a−b=−(a+b).

-(12.5+4.8)−(12.5+4.8)

2.Use the algorithm method.

1  

1 2 . 5

+  4 . 8

1 7 . 3

3.After simplification, we have:

-(12.5+4.8)=-17.3−(12.5+4.8)=−17.3

4. Therefore, -12.5-4.8=-17.3−12.5−4.8=−17.3.

-17.3−17.3

For A B and C, you just plug in the given number

A
2(15) + 5 = 35
B
4(20) + 2 = 82
C
6(10) + 5 = 65
And for D, you set the equation to 26 and solve for n
3x + 5 = 26 \\ 3x = 21 \\ x = 7
I had to use x instead of n, but for D n=7. :)

I need help!!! I just need the answer for p and i also need the answer step by step!!
klasskru [66]

Answer:

  x = 18

  m = 21.2

  p = 31.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the left-side length to the bottom-side length is the same for both triangles:

  x/11.2 = (x +27)/28

  28x = 11.2(x +27) = 11.2x +302.4 . . . . . multiply by 11.2·28

  16.8x = 302.4 . . . . . . . subtract 11.2x

  x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16.8

__

The length of m can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse.

  x^2 +11.2^2 = m^2

  m = √(324 +125.44) = √449.44 = 21.2

__

The length of p can also be found using the Pythagorean theorem. We prefer the proportion ...

  p/27 = m/x

  p = 27(21.2/18) = 31.8

The lengths of the unknown sides in the figure are ...

  x = 18

  m = 21.2

  p = 31.8

How do you this??<br><br> Scientific notation
Airida [17]
So Scientific Notation is a "simplified version" of a number. For example, is your number is 2,345, the scientific notation would be 2.345 * 10³. 

If it was 0.023, then the scientific notation would be 2.3 * 10^-2. 

Scientific notation is found by moving the decimal place to the left or right, until only one digit is left to the left of the decimal; it has to be greater than 1, but less than ten. If you move the decimal place to the right, it's a negative power of 10. If you move it to the left, it is a positive power of 10.


Hope this helps!
