⓵
When multiplying several factors together, an even number of negative signs will result in a positive answer.
↠ Because when you multiply two negative signs together, the negative signs turn into a positive sign, giving you a positive answer.
↠ If you have an even number of negative signs to multiply, then all your negative signs will be turned into positive signs, giving you a positive answer!
⓶
When multiplying several factors together, an odd number of negative signs will result in a negative answer.
↠ Because when you multiply a negative sign by a positive sign, the negative sign always wins, giving you a negative answer.
↠ If you har an odd number of negative signs to multiply, this means that once you are done multiplying all of the negative signs together except for the last one, you will be multiplying a positive sign with a negative sign.
↠ Here’s another way to see it : if you have 5 negative signs to multiply together, you will start by multiplying the first 2, which will give you a positive result. Then you will multiply the third and the fourth negative signs together, which will also give you a positive result. By that time, you will have two positive signs and one negative sign left, which means you will have no choice but to multiply a positive sign by the last negative sign, resulting in a negative answer!
I hope this helps! If you need a visual example, just tell me, it will be my pleasure! ☻
So the problem ask to find or solve the problem using distributive property, so to calculate if using distributive property is just the same calculation if you are multiplying two number using a paper so the answer is 5(8)+5(90)+5(100), 40+ 450+500 = 990. I hope you understand my answer
Answer:
a : b = 4 : 3
Step-by-step explanation:
(mark as brainlist answer)
According to the given condition is the question :
Two numbers a and b are such that the sum of 5% of a and 4% of b is two-third of the sum of 6% of a and 8% of b
⇒ (5% of a) + (4% of b) = (2/3) × [(6% of a) + (8% of b)
⇒ 0.05a + 0.04b = 2/3 × (0.06a + 0.08b)
⇒ 0.15a + 0.12b = 0.12a + 0.16b
⇒ 0.03a = 0.04b
⇒ a/b = 4/3
⇒ a : b = 4 : 3
Ten to the power of five.
Gross income= $813.61
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= $32,874
Fixed salary= $452
Commission= 1.1% paid on sales in excess of $25,000.
To calculate the gross income, we need to use the following formula:
Gross income= 452 + y*x
y= percentage comission
x= sales
For $32,874 sales:
Gross income= 452 + 0.011*32,874
Gross income= $813.61
