A book has 500 pages numbered 1,2,3 and so on. How many times does the digit 1 appear in the page numbers?
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This book has 500 pages in total.
We should split up the place values.
1 - 9
One only appears once.
1
10 - 19
One appears 11 times.
1 + 11
20 - 99
One only appears 8 times.
1 + 11 + 8
Add:
1 + 11 + 8
=> 20
Since the same is for 200-299, and so on. Let us add twenty four times.
20 * 4
=> 80
Looking back to 100-199, there are 120 ones.
Add:
120 + 80
=> 200

Answer:
- positive
- negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The thrust of the question is to make sure you understand that increasing the y-coordinate of a point will move the point upward, and decreasing it will move the point downward.
That is adding a positive value "k" to x^2 will move the point (x, x^2) to the point (x, x^2+k), which will be above the previous point by k units.
If k is subtracted, instead of added, then the point will be moved downward.
The blanks are supposed to be filled with <u> positive </u>, and <u> negative </u>.

<em>Comment on the question</em>
The wording of the statement you're completing is a bit odd. If k is negative (-2, for example), this statement is saying the graph is translated down -2 units. It is not. It is translated down |-2| = 2 units. The direction of translation depends on the sign of k. The amount of translation depends on the magnitude of k.
If you thoroughly understand (x, y) coordinates and how they are plotted on a graph, it should be no mystery that changing the y-coordinate will change the vertical position of the graph.
