Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers. A positive times a positive is a positive, right? But a negative times a negative is also a positive. Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number. So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.
Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives. Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147. What other factors of -147 are there?
What about 7? Try it: -147 / 7 = -21. So here are two factors: -21, and 7. They multiply to -147. Do they add up to -14? Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14. Yup, that works!
Answer: -21 and 7
110 minus 52 is 58 so the answer would be 58 more pitches
X = pay and y = hours worked
direct variation equations are of the form:
dependent variable = k(independent variable)
we need to find k, the constant of variation
x = ky
49.40 = 6.5k
7.6 = k
EQUATION: x = 7.6y
PAY for 25 hours: x = 7.6(25) = 190 or $190
Lets find the prime factorization of 22, 165, 35 and 210. Prime factorization of a number is breaking a number down into the set of prime numbers which multiply together to result in the original number.
The prime factorization of the number 22 is:
Similarly, for 165, 35 and 210 we have
Then, we can solve the given questions.
Question 1.
so we can cancel out the number 11 and get
Then, the answer is
Question 2.
and we can cancel out the number 5 and 7, then we obtain
then, the answer is
I believe the answer is 18 gallons.
6/9-4/9=2/9
Best Answer: Eighteen.... yes, I read it right. *sigh*
First convert 2/3 into ninths.
2/3 = 6/9
Therefore 2/9 is equal to 4 gallons...
Therefore 1/9 is equal to 2 gallons...
9 multiplied by 2 gallons is 18 gallons.
