Answer:

<em>-26 or 14</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Coordinate of point A is -6.

Length of AB = 20

To find:

Coordinates for the point B = ?

Solution:

We are given that:

AB = 20

In other words, we can use modulus function to define the distance between A and B:

|Coordinates of B - Coordinates of A| = 20

Let the coordinates of B = x

Kindly refer to the attached image for the given situation.

Point B might be either on the left or on the right side of A.

That means:

|x-(-6)| = 20\\\Rightarrow |x+6|=20

Now, let us have a look at the modulus function:

|y|=\left \{ {-{y}\ if\ y0} \right.

So,

|x+6|=\left \{ {-{(x+6)}\ if\ (x+6)0} \right.

(x+6 ) =20\\\Rightarrow x =14

-(x+6 ) =20\\\Rightarrow x =-26

Therefore, the answer is:

<em>-26 or 14</em>

Let x = cost of the dishwasher.

The amounts the children are paying are:

Mark =20% = 1/5, so  1/5x

Sorin = 75

Raymond = 1/4x

Stephanie = 75

Kristin = 1/3x

Add them together:

x = 1/5x + 1/4x + 1/3x + 75 + 75

x - ( 1/5x + 1/4x + 1/3x ) = 150

Rewrite fractions with common denominator:

x - ( 12/60x + 15/60x + 20/60x ) = 150

60/60x - 47/60x = 150

13/60x = 150

x = 150/1 • 60/13

x = 9000/13

x = 692.31

The total cost of the dishwasher is $692.31

Now calculate the amount each child pays:

Mark = 1/5 x = 692.31/ 5 = $138.46

Sorin = $75.00

Raymond = 1/4 x = 692.31 / 4 = $173.08

Stephanie = $75.00

Kristin =  1/3 x = 692.31 / 3 = $230.77

An ant crept to a hole, which was 300 cm away.
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Answer 10 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if it crawls 40 cm per minute but it goes back 10 cm because of wind then you have to do 40-10 = 30 then you do 300 divided by 30 to get the time.

Hope this helped!!!
