If x represents an integer how would you express its negative

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: -x

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to remember that:

- Integers contains the positive numbers (+), negative numbers (-) and zero.

- The numbers greater than zero are Positive Integers.

- The numbers less than zero are Negative integers.

- An integer and its opposite have the same distance from zero, but they are located on opposite sides of the number line.

In this case we know that x is a Positive Integer, therefore, based on the information mentioned before, we can say that its negative (or its opposite) is:

-x

Tim wants to ride his bike for 25 miles or less on some mountains bike trails . The table shows the distance of three different
Basile [38]

yo sup??

the sum of trails taken should be less than 25 miles

Black bear=B

Eagle Ridge=E

Doe Run=D

(btw names sound cool XD)

we will now try different combinations

B+E=7 1/2 ++ 10 1/4 which is clearly less than 25

B+D=7 1/2 + 8 3/4 which also less than 25

E+D=10 1/4 + 8 3/4 which is also less than 25

B+D+E=7 1/2 + 10 1/4 + 8 3/4 which is greater than 25

Therefore only the 1st,2nd and 3rd case are possible

Hope this helps.

Students in a zoology class took a final exam. They took equivalent forms of the exam at monthly intervals thereafter. After t​
juin [17]

Answer:

a. 73; b. 48.9; c. 2; d. 33.8; e. 73

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the function was

S(t)= 73 - 15 ln(t + 1), t  ≥ 0

a. Average score at t = 0

S(0) = 73 - 15 ln(0 + 1) = 73 - 15 ln(1) = 73 - 15(0) =73 - 0 = 73

b. Average score at t = 4

S(4) = 73 - 15 ln(4 + 1) = 73 - 15 ln(5) = 73 - 15(1.61) =73 - 24.14 = 48.9

c. Average score at t =24

S(24) = 73 - 15 ln(24 + 1) = 73 - 15 ln(25) = 73 - 15(3.22) =73 - 48.28 = 24.7

d. Percent of answers retained

At t = 0. the students retained 73 % of the answers.

At t = 24, they retained 24.7 % of the answers.

\text{Percent retention} = \dfrac{\text{24.7}}{\text{73}} \times 100 \, \% = \text{33.8 \%}\\\\\text{The students retained $\large \boxed{\mathbf{33.8 \, \%}}$ of their original knowledge after two years.}

e. Maximum of the function

The maximum of the function is at t= 0.

Max = 73 %

The graph below shows your knowledge decay curve. Knowledge decays rapidly at first but slows as time goes on.

M=3

-EXPLANATION-
Slope=rise over run(rise/run)
I used the points (-1,-6) and (2,3)
To solve you will use this formula: m=y₂−y₁/x₂−x₁
3=y2
2=y1
-6=x2
-1=x1
——————-
Set it up like so:
3- -6/2- -1

3- (-6)= 9

2- (-1)=3

9/3

9 divided by 3 is 3, making your slope(m) 3

Now, evaluate f (x) = 2x4 – 4x3 – 11x2 + 3x – 6 for x = –2.<br><br> f (–2) =
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

f(- 2) =  8

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(- 2) substitute x = - 2 into f(x) , that is

f(- 2) = 2(-2)^{4} - 4(- 2)³ - 11(- 2)² +3(- 2) - 6

       = 2(16) - 4(- 8) - 11(4) - 6 - 6

      = 32 + 32 - 44 - 12

      = 64 - 56

      = 8
