Answer:

-16 (assuming you are allowed both positive and negative numbers)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use two negative numbers, the result will be a positive, so the only way to get a number below zero is to use one positive and one negative number.

Here's the only options that provide one negative and one positive number:

1 x -7 = -7

2 x -6 = -12

3 x -5 = -15

4 x -4 = -16

5 x -3 = -15

6 x -2 = -12

7 x -1 = -7

Therefore, -16 is the lowest possible product of two numbers with a difference of 8

Hey there!

A reciprocal might be an unfamiliar vocab word, but the concept is really quite simple.

It's just a flipped fraction! Multiplying the flipped fraction by it's reciprocal gets you one, and that's how you check your answer.

So we have:

Reciprocal of 9/10 is 10/9, because 9/10 times 10/9 = 90/90 = 1

Reciprocal of 1/11 is 11/1, because 1/11 times 11/1 = 11/11 = 1

Reciprocal of 10(remember, it's 10/1) is 1/10, because 10/1 times 1/10 = 10/10 = 1

Hope this helps!

3. A savings account has a 3% interest rate. (a) Complete the ratio table shown. Show your work. Deposit ($) 100 50 300 Interest
blsea [12.9K]
We all know, savings account have "Compound Interest"

So, Here, On $100 deposit, amount of Interest = $12

So, for $50, it would be: $6

Then, for $300, it is: $36

b) If you deposit $200, then balance after 1 year, 
A = P(1 + r)^t

A = 200(1 + 0.03)^1

A = 200(1.03)
A = $206

Now, Balance with $150
A = 150 (1 + 0.03)^1
A = 150(1.03)
A = 154.5

Difference = 206 - 154.5 = $51.5

In short, Your Answer would be: $51.5

Hope this helps!

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+5y=4?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

5/3 or 1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line

3x+5y=4                Subtract 3x from both sides

5y = - 3x + 4           Divide both sides by 5

y = (-3/5)x + 4

The original line has a slope of - 3/5 or - 0.6

Find the slope of the perpendicular line

m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = - 3/5

m2 = -1/(-3/5)

m2 = 5/3

The slope of the perpendicular line is

5/3 or 1.67

The first step is to quickly factor each of the five equations... to do so, find the right factors of the 3rd given number so that they add up in an equal number to the second number... 14 = -7 • -2 and -9 = -7 + -2


a^2 - 9a + 14 = 0
(a - 7) (a - 2)

a - 7 = 0, a = 7
a - 2 = 0, a = 2

{2,7}



a^2 + 9a + 14 = 0
(a + 7) (a + 2)

a + 7 = 0, a = -7
a + 2 = 0, a = -2

{-2, -7}


a^2 + 3a - 10 = 0
(a + 5) (a - 2)

a + 5 = 0, a = -5
a - 2 = 0, a = 2

{-5, 2}


a^2 - 5a - 14 = 0
(a - 7) (a + 2)
a - 7 = 0, a = 7
a + 2 = 0, a = -2

{-2, 7}
