She is correct because a negative subtracted by a negative is positive.

Hi, yes the result is always a positive. Subtracting a negative and a positive will equal a negative but yes your answer is yes.

Rachel mows 5 lawns in 8 hours. At this rate how many lawns can she mow in 40 hour?
posledela

We can think of this as an equality

5 Lawns = 8 Hours

If she needs 40 hours, you can multiply 8 hours by 5 to get 40, but now it's not balanced. So, you need to multiply 5 to the other side too so:

5 x (5) = 8 x (5)

Therefore she mows 25 Lawns in 40 Hours

In the left column: how was the numerical part of the answer found (addition, subtraction )
Setler79 [48]
You can find the numerical part of the answer because it is the same on the right side.

For example:
 ¹      <<==== Regrouped
  89
+
  67
---------
146   <<=== I had to press space so I could position it.

So that also happens in subtraction, the left side can be found by doing the same steps in the right column.
For example:

67
-                    <<=== this time there was no regrouping
12
-------
55

Thе іmagе оf (-2, 5) is (1, 1).
dem82 [27]

Answer:

  (6, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get to x=1 from x=-2, you must add 3 to the x-coordinate. Only one answer choice has an x-coordinate that is 3 more than that of the given point:

  3 + 3 = 6

The image point is (6, -2).

_____

<em>Check</em>

To get from a y-coordinate of 5 to an image point y-coordinate of 1, you must subtract 4. If you subtract 4 from the y-coordinate of (3, 2), you get 2-4 = -2, the y-coordinate in the chosen answer above.
