-12-(-8)

Double negative is the same as positive, so the two negatives cancel out to a plus sign.

If 7 beans were on your plate, and you took away 2 bananas, how many apples are left?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

4 tacos

Step-by-step explanation:

according to the converse of triangle proportionality theorem, 7 beans is equivalent to 5 bananas, so if we took 2 away we would be left with 4 tacos, not apples because an apple a day keeps the doctor away and we are in a pandemic right now

Two tourists went on a hike at dawn. One went from a to b and another one went from b to a. They met at noon but did not stop an
Alecsey [184]
<span>Dawn was at 6 am. Variables a = distance from a to passing point b = distance from b to passing point c = speed of hiker 1 d = speed of hiker 2 x = number of hours prior to noon when dawn is The first hiker travels for x hours to cover distance a, and the 2nd hiker then takes 9 hours to cover that same distance. This can be expressed as a = cx = 9d cx = 9d x = 9d/c The second hiker travels for x hours to cover distance b, and the 1st hiker then takes 4 hours to cover than same distance. Expressed as b = dx = 4c dx = 4c x = 4c/d We now have two expressions for x, set them equal to each other. 9d/c = 4c/d Multiply both sides by d 9d^2/c = 4c Divide both sides by c 9d^2/c^2 = 4 Interesting... Both sides are exact squares. Take the square root of both sides 3d/c = 2 d/c = 2/3 We now know the ratio of the speeds of the two hikers. Let's see what X is now. x = 9d/c = 9*2/3 = 18/3 = 6 x = 4c/d = 4*3/2 = 12/2 = 6 Both expressions for x, claim x to be 6 hours. And 6 hours prior to noon is 6am. We don't know the actual speeds of the two hikers, nor how far they actually walked. But we do know their relative speeds. And that's enough to figure out when dawn was.</span>
