Adding Integers
If the numbers that you are adding have the same sign, then add the numbers and keep the sign.
Example:
-5 + (-6) = -11
Adding Numbers with Different Signs
If the numbers that you are adding have different (opposite) signs, then SUBTRACT the numbers and take the sign of the number with the largest absolute value.
Examples:
-6 + 5= -1
12 + (-4) = 8
Subtracting Integers
When subtracting integers, I use one main rule and that is to rewrite the subtracting problem as an addition problem. Then use the addition rules.
When you subtract, you are really adding the opposite, so I use theKeep-Change-Change rule.
The Keep-Change-Change rule means:
Keep the first number the same.
Change the minus sign to a plus sign.
Change the sign of the second number to its opposite.
Example:
12 - (-5) =
12 + 5 = 17
Multiplying and Dividing Integers
The great thing about multiplying and dividing integers is that there is two rules and they apply to both multiplication and division!
Again, you must analyze the signs of the numbers that you are multiplying or dividing.
The rules are:
If the signs are the same, then the answer is positive.
If the signs are different, then then answer is negative.
-9x(5 - 2x) Distribute/multiply 9x into (5 - 2x)
(-9x)5 - (-9x)2x
-45x - (-18x²) 2 negative signs cancel each other out and become +
-45x + 18x² Your answer is A ( the first option)
Answer: 5.76 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance between Victoria and Georgetown on the map be represented by x.
The information given in the question can then be formed into an expression which will be:
0.9/x = 10.5/67.2
Cross multiply
(10.5 × x) = 67.2 × 0.9
10.5x = 60.48
x = 60.48/10.5
x = 5.76
The answer is 5.76 miles
Answer:
y = 2*x^2 - 2*x - 24
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a quadratic function with roots a and b, we can write the equation for that function as:
y = f(x) = A*(x - a)*(x - b)
Where A is the leading coefficient.
In this case, we know that the roots are: 4 and -3
Then the function will be something like:
f(x) = A*(x - 4)*(x - (-3) )
f(x) = A*(x - 4)*(x + 3)
Now we need to determine the value of A.
We also know that the graph of the function passes through the point (3, -12)
This means that:
f(3) = -12
Then:
-12 = A*(3 - 4)*(3 + 3)
-12 = A*(-1)*(6)
-12 = A*(-6)
-12/-6 = A
2 = A
Then the equation is:
y = f(x) = 2*(x - 4)*(x + 3)
Now we need to write this in standard form, so we just need to expand the equation:
y = f(x) = 2*(x^2 + x*3 - x*4 - 4*3)
y = f(x) = 2*(x^2 - x - 12)
y = f(x) = 2*x^2 - 2*x - 24
Then the relation is:
y = 2*x^2 - 2*x - 24
Answer:
Lets say test tubes = t, and beakers = b
1 pack of (t) is $4 less than 1 pack of (b)
Since i have no prior information we are going to use variables for this equation:
1t (1 pack of test tubes) is $4 less than 1b (1 set of beakers)
so to quantify the equation, we have 8t and 12b.
if b is a number that IS quantifiable such as $5 we can easily figure out this answer.
Lets use and example that 1 set of beakers is $8, if we multiply $8 by 12 (the number of sets of beakers), we get: 96
Using the same example, if 1t is $4 less than 1b than 1t = $4. So, if we multiply $4 by 8 (the amount of packs of test tubes), we get: 32
If you take both of those numbers: 96, and 32 and you divide them you get 3. so that means that 1t = 3b
Answer = 1t = 3b
This may not be correct due to the little information that i got however i hope that, that works out for you :)
