Describe a way to check the correctness of a subtraction answer.
Tamiku [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Well in general, we can represent subtraction as: x-y=z

"z" represents the difference, and it really just represents x with y taken away. So if we were to "give back" this y value, we should get "x".

This means that: z+y=x

So one way to check, is adding the value that's being subtracted (y value) and the difference (z value), this should get you the value that is being subtracted from (x value). If you don't get the original value that's being subtracted from (x-value) then you know the answer you got is wrong.

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 20 ft from the path and is kept f
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

0.128rad/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the between the man and the point on the path

θ = the angle

dx/dt = 4 ft/s

dθ/dt = rate is the searchlight rotating when the man is 15 ft from the point on the path closest to the searchlight

tan θ = x/20 ft

Cross Multiply

20tan θ = x

dx/dt = 20sec² θ dθ/dt

dθ/dt = 1/20 × cos² θ dx/dt

dθ/dt= 1/20 × cos² θ × 4

dθ/dt = 1/5 × cos² θ

Note : cos θ = 4/5

dθ/dt = 1/5 × (4/5)²

dθ/dt = 16/125

dθ/dt = 0.128rad/sec

A group of students are planning a mural at a wall the rectangular wall has dimensions of (6x+7) by (8x+5) and they are planning
zvonat [6]

Answer: 46x^2+73x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with the formula:

A=lw

l: the length of the rectangle.

w: the width of the rectangle.

The area of the remaning wall after the mural has been painted, will be the difference of the area of the wall and the area of the mural.

Knowing that the dimensions of the wall are (6x+7) by (8x+5), its area is:

A_w=(6x+7)(8x+5)\\\\A_w=48x^2+30x+56x+35\\\\A_w=48x^2+86x+35

As they are planning that the dimensions of the mural be (x+4) by (2x+5), its area is:

A_m=(x+4)(2x+5)\\\\A_m=2x^2+5x+8x+20\\\\A_m=2x^2+13x+20

Then the area of the remaining wall after the mural has been painted is:

A_{(remaining)}=A_w-A_m\\\\A_{(remaining)}=48x^2+86x+35-(2x^2+13x+20)\\\\A_{(remaining)}=48x^2+86x+35-2x^2-13x-20\\\\A_{(remaining)}=46x^2+73x+15

A jar contains 18 red marbles 14 green marbels and 20 blue marbles a marble was selected at random the color was recorded and th
muminat

The "relative frequency" is

         (number of times a blue marble came out)
divided by
         (total number of trials before everybody got bored and quit) .

-- The relative frequency of blue was  (20/60)  =  (33 and 1/3) % .
(Even though 38.5% of the marbles in the jar are blue,
they didn't get picked that often.)

-- The relative frequency of green was  (18/60)  =  30 % .
(Even though only 26.9% of the marbles in the jar are green,
they got picked more often than that.)

-- The relative frequency of red was  (22/60)  =  (36 and 2/3) % .
(Even though 42.3% of the marbles in the jar are red,
they didn't get picked that often.)
