It is negative only when the number itself is negative.
hence, sometimes.

Dividing negative exponents is almost the same as multiplying them, except you're doing the opposite: subtracting where you would have added and dividing where you would have multiplied. If the bases are the same, subtract the exponents. Remember to flip the exponent and make it positive, if needed.

Homogenized milk has a density of 1.032 kg/L and heavy cream has a density of 1.005 kg/L at 10°C. At 10°C, a container holding 8
Bumek [7]

Answer:

It's heavy cream

Step-by-step explanation:

Homogenized milk has a density of 1.032 kg/L and

heavy cream has a density of 1.005 kg/L at 10°C.

At 10°C, a container holding 8 liters of liquid weighs 8.04 kilograms

To determine which container hold homogenized milk or heavy cream and How I know?

We findo the density of the measurements given and whatever it correspond to is what it is

First mass is 8.04kg

Liquid contained is 8 litres

SInce the density is kg/L

No need for conversion

Density = mass/volume = 8.04/8= 1.005kg/L

Heavy cream has a density of 1.005 kg/L at 10°C.

Therefore it correspond

This net can be folded to make a square pyramid. what is the surface area of the pyramid
givi [52]

Answer:  

85in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the surface area we need to find the followng areas:  

  • area of the square  
  • area of a triangle and multiply it by 4 (because there are 4 triangles)

And once we have those areas, we add them to find the surface area.

Area of the square:

the formula to find the area of a square is:

a_{square}=l^2

where l is the length of the side: l=5in

thus the area of the square is:

a_{square}=(5in)^2

a_{square}=25in^2

Area of the triangles:

the are of 1 triangle is given by

a_{triangle} =\frac{b*h}{2}

where b is the base of the triangle: b=5in (the base of the triangle is the side of the square)

and h is the height of the triangle: h=6in

thus, the area of 1 triangle is:

a_{triangle} =\frac{(5in)*(6in)}{2}

a_{triangle} =\frac{30in^2}{2}

a_{triangle} =15in^2

the area of the 4 triangles is (we multiply by 4):

a_{4-triangles}=4(15in^2)

a_{4-triangles}=60in^2

finally we add the area of the square and the area of the 4 triangles to find the total surface area:

Surface=25in^2+60in^2

Surface=85in^2

the height y of a ball thrown by a child is given by y = -1/12x^2 + 2x + 4. how high is the ball when it is at its maximum heigh
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The height of ball when it is at maximum height is 12  unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

A ball is thrown by child to height y

And y as a function  x is y = -\frac{1}{12}x^{2}+2x+4

So, for maximum value of height ,

\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}  = 0

Or , \frac{\partial (-\frac{1}{12}x^{2}+2x+4)}{\partial x} = 0

Or, -\frac{1}{12}(2x)+2 = 0

Or, \frac{1}{12}(2x) = 2

or,  x = 12

Hence The height of ball when it is at maximum height is 12  unit  Answer
