<h3>Answer: 10</h3>

Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive. So 2-(-8) is really 2+8 = 10.

With something like 2-8, we start at 2 and move to the left 8 units to arrive at -6 on the number line. When we do 2-(-8), we start at 2 and move 8 units in the opposite direction since -8 is the opposite of 8.

In terms of money, you can think of a negative number as an IOU or it represents the amount of debt. Writing -8 means you are 8 dollars in debt. If we subtract away debt, then we have less of it and effectively its the same as adding dollars to your pocket. Subtracting away 8 dollars of debt is the same as adding 8 dollars to your pocket, which is one interpretation of how 2-(-8) is the same as 2+8.

Simone saved $15.45 from allowance, had $7.37 in her piggy bank, and had $22.55 left from her birthday. How much money does Simo
zmey [24]

Simon has $45.37

Simone savings from allowance= $15.45

Amount Simone had in piggy bank = $7.37

Left over from birthday = $22.55

Total amount of money that Simone now has = $15.45 + $7.37 + $22.55

Total amount of money that Simone now has = $45.37

Simon has $45.37

Find the 10th term of the sequence if the explicit function/formula is f(n)=100+10n
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The 10th term of the sequence is 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The sequence is as follows :

f(n)=100+10n

We need to find 10th term of the sequence.

Put n = 10 in the given expression.

f(10)=100+10(10)

= 100 + 100

= 200

Hence, the 10th term of the sequence is 200.

Sin0=12/37 find tan0
alexira [117]

Answer:

\large{ \tt{❃ \: EXPLANATION}} :

  • We're provide - Sin θ = \frac{12}{37} which means 12 is the perpendicular & 37 is the hypotenuse [ Since Sin θ = \tt{  \frac{p}{h}} ] . We're asked to find out tan θ ].

\large{ \tt{❁ \: USING \: PYTHAGORAS \: THEOREM}} :

\large{ \tt{❊ \:  {h}^{2}  =  {p}^{2}  +  {b}^{2} }}

\large{ \tt{⇢ {p}^{2} +  {b}^{2}   =  {h}^{2} }}

\large{ \tt{⇢ \:  {b}^{2}  =  {h}^{2}  -  {p}^{2} }}

\large{ \tt{⇢ \:  {b}^{2} = {37}^{2} -  {12}^{2}   }}

\large{ \tt{⇢ \:  {b}^{2}  = 1369 - 144}}

\large{ \tt{ ⇢{b}^{2}  = 1225}}

\large{ \tt{⇢ \: b =  \sqrt{1225}}}

\large{ \tt{⇢ \: b = 35  \: \text {units}}}

  • Now , We know - Tan θ= \tt{ \frac{perpendicular}{base} }. Just plug the values :

\large{ \tt{➝ \: Tan  \: \theta =  \frac{p}{b}  = \boxed{ \tt{  \frac{12}{35} }}}}
