Answer:

Equation: -5 + 12

Overall change: 7 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem, it says "lost 5 yards". "Lost" is another way of saying subtraction or negative. Therefore, our starting number is -5.

The problem also says "gained 12 yards". "Gained" is another was of saying addition or positive. Therefore, our second number is positive 12.

Together, these two numbers look like this: -5 + 12. To add them, go 12 to the right of -5 if on a number line. That would be like this: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, etc until you get to 7 which should be 12 more than -5.

Therefore, the answer is 7 yards.

We know that the measure of arc AC = 92 degrees, and x and y are both inscribed angles of this arc, which means that they will have 1/2 of its measure.

Therefore, x = 1/2 (92) = 46 degrees and y = 1/2 (92) = 46 degrees

x = 46, y = 46 is your answer, or the first option

<h3>What is a word problem in mathematics?</h3>

A word problem is a real-life problem and it can be approached with the use of a mathematical model, interpretation into variables, and arithmetic operations usage.

Given that:

  • A company buys three mailing lists with 2500, 3500, and 4000 addresses respectively.

The number of potential customers that the company has reached is:

= 2500  3500 + 4000 e--mail addresses.

= 10,000  e--mail addresses.

Answer:

10. 1/9

11. 1 1/6

12. 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

10.

He spent 2/3 of 1/6 of the day.

In math, "of" means multiplication, so 2/3 of 1/6 means 2/3 * 1/6.

2/3 * 1/6 = 2/18 = 1/9

He spent 1/9 of the day adding mulch.

11.

He spent 2/3 of 1 3/4 hours.

In math, "of" means multiplication, so 2/3 of 1 3/4 means 2/3 * 1 3/4.

2/3 * 1 3/4 = 2/3 * 7/4 = 14/12 = 7/6 = 1 1/6

He spent 1 1/6 hours working on the project.

12.

She planted 1/6 of 3/4 of the area.

In math, "of" means multiplication, so 1/6 of 3/4 means 1/6 * 3/4.

1/6 * 3/4 = 3/24 = 1/8

She planted carrots in 1/8 of the garden.

For this problem you need to put the x values in for x in the equation. For example, put -10 in for x and calculate y, which is g(x)
