Option 2.)
(Please correct me if I'm wrong)
To evaluate this expression, we need to remember that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number, and that adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive number. Using this knowledge, let's begin to simplify the expression below:
-1 - 3 - (-9) + (-5)
Because addition of a negative number is the same as subtraction of a positive number, we can change + (-5) to -5, as shown below:
-1 - 3 - (-9) - 5
Next, because we know that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number, we can change - (-9) to + 9, as shown below:
-1 - 3 + 9 - 5
Now, we can subtract the first two terms and begin to evaluate our expression:
-4 + 9 - 5
Next, we can add the first two numbers of the expression:
5 - 5
Now, we can subtract our last two numbers, which gives us our answer:
0
Therefore, your answer is 0.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
D;the tropical ostrich runs at a speed of about 36 miles per hour
Answer:
nitrogen is the solvent and oxygen is the solute
Step-by-step explanation:
Most of the time the solute will be present in a smaller quantity and the solvent will appear in a larger quantity.
Notice the following pattern:
2 - 0 = 2
6 - 2 = 4
12 - 6 = 6
20 - 12 = 8
It's reasonable to assume that consecutive terms in the sequence differ by increasing multiples of 2, so that for the next number (call it x) we expect to see
x - 20 = 10 ==> x = 30
and for the number after that (call it y) we would see
y - x = y - 30 = 12 ==> y = 42
