Using a scale that has increments that are somewhat large, you could get an error if you reach half of the measuring unit. This is because when you arrive at a measurement greater than half of the measuring unit, you would have to round it up. Therefore, the greatest possible error when measuring to the nearest quarter of an inch is 1/8 inch.

Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the expression -4 - (-7)?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

-4-(-7)

First, simplify. Two negatives make a positive. Therefore, the -(-7) turns into +7:

-4-(-7)\\=-4+7

When adding on the number line, we move to the right.

Therefore, the correct interpretation is the value 7 digits to the <em>right</em> of -4.

D is the correct answer.

3. Suppose m4 = (3x + 5)º and m5 = (x +95), where x = 20. Are the lines parallel? Explain.
lions [1.4K]
No, 3(20)+5=65 and 20+95=115.
65 is not equal to 115; therefore they are not parallel because they are not congruent.
