2 answers:

7 0

-18-(-12)=-6
Since there is two negative sign, it turns into positive meaning the -12 becomes positive 12 and the -18 stays same. So -18+12=-6 because 18 is bigger than 12 and it's negative so the final answer should be negative.
Hint: when you see two negative sign just turn them into plus sign.

-18-(-12)= -18+12 = -6
Since (-*-)= + sign
So -18+12 will be equal to -6

The 50th term of an arithmetic sequence is 86 and the common difference is 2. Find the first three terms of the sequence.

Nesterboy [21]

$a_n=a_{n-1}+d=a_{n-2}+2d=\cdots=a_1+(n-1)d$

which means

$a_{50}=86=a_1+49\times2\implies a_1=-12$

which in turn means the next two terms are $a_2=-10$ and $a_3=-8$ .

In a shipment of 600 parts, 30 are found to be defective. How many defective parts should be expected in a shipment of 1000?

kobusy [5.1K]

We can except 30/600 = 0.05>> 5%percent,
so 1000 * 0.05 = 50 parts defective
