Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mr. Doss pulled out 16 negative counters and 27 positive counters.

In integers we use negative sign "-" to represent the negative quantities.

So, we can represent 16 negative counters as -16.

Now, combined value of the counters = (-16) + 27

= 27-16

= 11

Hence, the combined value of the counters is 11.

Why will percent of change always be represented by a positive number?
Murljashka [212]
Percent of change will always be positive because the change is an absolute value. As we know, absolute value is always a positive value because you don't pay attention to the direction, only the distance is important.

Can someone help me with this please
skad [1K]

Answer:

the answer is: 6z^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve this equation:

\sqrt{36z^6}

We know that 6X6 = 36

and √ = 1/2

Solving:

=\sqrt{6*6*z*z*z*z*z*z}\\We\,\,know\,\,6X6=6^2\,\, and \,\,z*z=z^2\\=\sqrt{6^2*z^2*z^2*z^2} \\=(6^2)^{1/2}*(z^2)^{1/2}*(z^2)^{1/2}*(z^2)^{1/2}\\=6*z*z*z\\=6z^3

So, the answer is: 6z^3

the lenght of the longer leg of a right triangle is 9 ft longer than the lenght of the shorter leg x. The hypotenuse is 9 ft sho
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:  5 23  8 03

the lenght of the longer leg of a right triangle is 9 ft longer than the lenght of the shorter leg x. The hypotenuse is 9 ft shorter than twice the lenght of the shorter leg.

shorter leg    = x

longer leg     = x + 9

hypotenuse  =  2x - 9

Pythagorean theorem  =    a² + b²  = c²

             shorter-leg² + longer-leg² = hypotenuse²

                         x²  +  (x+9)²  = (2x - 9)²                  solve for x

                  x² +  (x+9) (x+9)  =  (2x - 9)(2x - 9)

                 x² +  (x²+18x+81)  =  (4x² - 36x + 81)

                       (2x²+18x+81)  =  (4x² - 36x + 81)

                                          0 =   2x² -54x

                                          0 =  x(2x - 54)  

                           0 = x      and         0 = 2x -54  

                                                       54 = 2x

                                                      27 =  x

shorter leg    = 27        

longer leg     = 36

hypotenuse  =  45

divided all the values by 9 and you get a 3, 4, 5  right triangle, so the answer checks correct
