When you subtract a number, you get the same results as when you add the opposite number. Why?

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the opposite of a number is the same number with the opposite sign. For example, the opposite of -1 is 1.

So, say we have an equation where we're subtracting a number, for example, 2-1, which obviously equals 1. Now, if we add the opposite of 1 to 2, we get the equation 2+(-1) which still equals 1.

I hope this helps!

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2^2 + 3x - 3 = 0

4 - 3 + 3x = 0

1 + 3x = 0

x = -1/3

a photograph is printed in the center of a piece of paper measuring 7 cm by (x + 8) cm. The photo measures 5 cm by (x +6) cm . T

Nadusha1986 [10]

The paper is 7 cm by (x + 8) cm.

A photo is 5 cm by (x + 6) cm, and is printed in the middle of the paper.

The area of the border/space around the photo is 50 cm².

To find the area of the border around the photo, you find the area of the paper and subtract it by the area of the photo.

The area of the paper:

A = 7 · (x + 8)

The area of the photo:

A = 5 · (x + 6)

Your equation to find the area of the border around the photo is:

(7 · (x + 8)) - (5 · (x + 6)) = A

[area of paper - area of photo = area of border]

Since you know the area of the border, you can plug it in:

(7 · (x + 8)) - (5 · (x + 6)) = 50

Multiply the 7 into (x + 8), and multiply the 5 into (x + 6)

(7x + 56) - (5x + 30) = 50

Distribute/multiply the - to (5x + 30)

7x + 56 - 5x - 30 = 50

Combine like terms

2x + 26 = 50

Subtract 26 on both sides

2x = 24

Divide 2 on both sides

x = 12

The Scottsdale fire department aims to respond to fire calls in 4 minutes or less, on average. Response times are normally distr

IgorC [24]

<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>

Let $\mu$ be the population mean.

As per given , we have

$H_0:\mu \leq4\\\\ H_a: \mu >4$

Since the alternative hypothesis is right-tailed , so the test is a right-tailed test.

Also, population standard deviation is given $\sigma=1$ , so we perform one-tailed z-test.

Test statistic : $z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

, where $\mu$ = Population mean

$\sigma$ = Population standard deviation

n= sample size

$\overline{x}$ = Sample mean

For n= 18 , $\overline{x}=4.50$ , $\sigma=1$ , $\mu =4$ , we have

$z=\dfrac{4.5-4}{\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{18}}}\approx2.12$

P-value (for right tailed test): P(z>2.12) = 1-P(z≤ 2.12) [∵ P(Z>z)=1-P(Z≤z)]\

=1- 0.0340=0.9660

Decision : Since P-value(0.9660) > Significance level (0.01), it means we are failed to reject the null hypothesis.

[We reject null hypothesis if p-value is larger than the significance level . ]

Conclusion : We do not have sufficient evidence to show that the goal is not being met at α = .01 .
