Answer:

The 8th number is -9

Step-by-step explanation:

With an average, the sum of the seven numbers divided by 7 is 15.

In order to add an 8th number, we set up

\frac{7*15+x}{8}=12\\105 + x = 96\\x = -9\\\\\frac{105-9}{8}=\frac{96}{8}=12

I’m so bad at slope
Travka [436]

Answer:

So slope 1 would be positive

Slope 2 would be negative

Slope 3 would be zero

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope is moving up from left to right, then it is positive

If the slope is moving down from left to right, then it is negative

If the slope is a vertical line and is not moving left/right, then it is undefined

If the slope is a horizontal line and is not moving up/down, then it is zero

So slope 1 would be positive because it is moving up from left to right.

Slope 2 would be negative because it is moving down from left to right.

Slope 3 would be zero because it is a horizontal line that is not moving up or down.

Hope this helped!

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The air is .6m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is

V = s^3 where s is the side length

The volume of the tank is

V = 1^3 = 1 m^3

The volume of the water is 1 by 1 by .4

V = l*w*h

   = 1 *1*.4

   = .4 m^3

The difference must be filled by air

1- .4 = .6 m^3

The air is .6m^3
