Use a number line to add 3 + (-5).

Mathematics
1 answer:
jekas [21]3 years ago

Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation: When your adding and subtracting positives and negatives, it helps to use a number line to visualise what's going on in the problem.

On a number line zero is in the middle. All numbers to the right of zero are positive and all numbers to the left of zero are negative.

So when your simplifying a problem like 3 + (-5), we start at zero and positive 3 takes us to the right. From there, -5 moves us 5 units back to the left and we end up -2. So 3 + (-5) simplifies to -2.

I have attached a number line along with my work

for this problem below.

The the intensity I of light (in lumens) in a certain lake at a depth of x feet is given by log(1/12) = -0.00235x. What is the i
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

11.45 lumens

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

log(I/12)=-0.00235x

Where x=Depth

I=Intensity of light

We have to find the intensity of the light at a depth of 20 feet.

Substitute the value of x

log(I/12)=-0.00235\times 20

log(I/12)=-0.047

\frac{I}{12}=e^{-0.047}

I=12e^{-0.047}

I=11.45 Lumens

Hence, the intensity of the light (in lumens) at a depth of 20 feet=11.45 lumens
