(-2/5)-(-1/8)

Need to make the denominators the same

(-16/40)-(-5/40)

Multiply -2/5 by 8

Multiply -1/8 by 8

-- sign= positive

-16/40+5/40

Answer=-11/40

Goshia [24]

Answer:

Well, let's assume that "cups" = 3 cups of flour.

If you vertically compress the linear parent function, F(x) = x, by multiplying by 1/2 , what is the equation of the new functio
ElenaW [278]
Vertical compression of a function is moving the graph of the function towards the x axis.
It is done by multiplying F(x) with IaI<1, the absolute value of a is less than 1. Then we get f(x)=a*F(x).

If we have a function F(x)=x, and we multiply it by a=1/2, we get:

f(x)=a*F(x)=a*x=(1/2)*x.

This linear function is vertically compressed because the the graph of a new function is closer to the x axis.

In quadrilateral $ABCD$, we have $AB=3,$ $BC=6,$ $CD=4,$ and $DA=4$.
vampirchik [111]
The triangle inequality applies.

In order for ACD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between CD-DA=0 and CD+DA=8.

In order for ABD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between BC-AB=3 and BC+AB=9.

The values common to both these restrictions are numbers between 3 and 8. Assuming we don't want the diagonal to be coincident with any sides, its integer length will be one of ...
