Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is in degrees, it is actually 0.
Associative property is only applied to addition and multiplication. Thus, it can't be applied to subtraction. This property is manifested when you get the same answer no matter where you put the parenthesis. Example of associative property is:
(50 + 2) + (92 + 6) = 52+98 = 150
50 + (2+92) + 6 = 50 + 94 + 6 = 150
Here is the counter example for the subtraction of decimals:
(3.45 - 8.92) - (1.9 - 7.3) = -5.47 - ⁻5.4 = -0.07
3.45 - (8.92 - 1.9) - 7.3 = 3.45 - 7.02 - 1.9 = -5.47
As you can see, the answers are not the same.
We have 60% and 85% antifreeze
We need 140 gallons of 70% antifreeze
x + y = 140
.60x + .85y = .70 * 140
X = 84 gallons 60%
Y = 56 gallons 85%
9514 1404 393
Answer:
20 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is given by the formula ...
A = bh
where b is the base of the parallelogram, and h is the perpendicular distance between the parallel bases. Using the numbers from the figure, we have ...
A = 5·4 = 20 . . . . square units

<em>Additional comment</em>
You will notice this is the same formula as is used for a rectangle. You can consider the parallelogram to have the same area as a rectangle of these dimensions if you look at what happens when you cut the right triangle from the right end and add it to the left end. The result is a rectangle 5 units wide and 4 units high.
The same formula applies even if the skew is so great that the bases do not overlap. (That much skew would not result in a triangle of the kind shown in this diagram.)
