Answer:

Hence, ||| only is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

" By the integer '-3' we mean there is a decrease in the quantity of anything or that it is lacking behind ".

| statement: You gain 3 pounds

is a positive quantity as there is gain of something. so integer '+3' will be used to define it.

|| statement: You set your clock 3 hours ahead.

is also a positive quantity as the time is leading by 3 hours; so integer '+3' will be used to define it.

||| statement: You use 3 gallons of gas.

is a negative quantity as after the usage of 3 gallons of gas the quantity of gas will decrease so integer '-3' will be used to define it.

Hence, ||| only is the correct option.

HELP ME PLZZZZ!!!!!<br><br><br> It’s just 21 and 22
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

21) 12 cm

22) 5.9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

21) The base is 10, and if the other two sides are congruent and the perimeter is 36, we can figure out with simple algebra that the sides are 13 cm long.

Half of 10 is 5, so we can use the pythagorean theorem.

5^2+x^2=13^2

Rearranging the variables we have 169-25=x^2

144=x^2

x can be plus or minus 12, but since negative length is impossible we find that x is positive 12 cm.

22) We want to use sine, because we have opposite and hypotenuse. A simple and easy way to memorize this is the SohCahToa method. If we have opposite (O) and hypotenuse (H) we have OH. Soh has the letters O and H, and the S means we should use sine.

sine 36=a/10

Plug this into a calculator or desmos scientific calculator to get a=5.9

What happens when an image is reflected over y = -x
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Well, it's pretty simple. If your reflecting something over the y axis the X will change if it's negative or positive. So if it's -x and you flip it over it becomes a positive x. If you flip it over the x-axis the Y is the one that change to a negative or positive.

So if the shape flips over the y-axis, the X points will turn negative. for example, one of the points is (1,4) it will turn to (-1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:
