Answer:
Yes.
(20-(-16)) = 20 + 16
20 + 16 = 36 thus
(20-(-16)) = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
With your equation, I'm pretty sure you are trying to determine whether or not this equation is true. Let's start with the first part.
(20-(-16))
Let's break it down.
20 - -16
Whenever a number is like that, it becomes a positive. (I don't really remember what its called, but it flips in negativity)
20 + 16
20 + 16 = 36.
36 = (20-(-16))
First the distributive property actually means "to share"
Second here's how you do it ...
the two numerators are multiplied , same with the denominator
4 x 10 and 25 x 1
this gets you 40/25 as an improper fraction but here is the simplified answer
1 3/5
Answer: -47 - 48x
Step-by-step explanation: When you first take a look at this problem, it's tempting to want to subtract -7 - 8 to get -15 and then distribute the -15 through the parentheses.
You wouldn't want to subtract however before you distribute because the distributive property is a form of multiplication and remember from your order of operations that multiplication comes before subtraction.
So the first thing you want to do here is distribute and change the minus sign in front of the -8 to plus a negative 8 so that you know you are distributing a -8 through your parentheses.
So we have -7 + -8 times 6x which is -42x + -8 times 5 which is -40.
Now we have -7 + -48x + -40.
Now just combine your like terms. -7 + -40 is -47 and plus a negative 48x can be written as -48x so we have -47 - 48x.
So your answer is just -47 - 48x.
There are 100 students. In the 100 students, 79 of them have honors. To find the decimal form for the students who have honors, divide the total amount of students with honors with the total amount of students.
Divide 79 by 100
Your answer is 0.79
