<u>Equation/Question:</u>

-6x-(-8)=2

<u>Answer/Way I did it:</u>

1. Remove parentheses.

-6x+8=2

2. Subtract 8 from both sides.

-6x=2-8

3. Simplify  2-8 to  -6.

-6x=-6

4. Divide both sides by -6.

<u>x=1</u>

-------------

<u>Checking:</u>

<u>Equation/Question:</u>

−6x−(−8)=2

----------------------

1. Let x=1.

−6×1+8=2

2. Simplify  -6×1  to  −6.

-6+8=2

3. Simplify  -6+8 to  2.

2=2

Answer:

48 units

Step-by-step explanation:

1. graph

2. separate into a triangle and a square

3. the square is 6x6 squares, so 36 there

4. the triangle is 4x6, so (4x6)/2 is 12

5. 36+12 = 48 units

Suppose that 5 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 30 cm to a length of 39 cm.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer

given,

work = 5 J

spring stretch form 30 cm to 39 cm

W = \dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

x = 0.39 - 0.30 = 0.09 m

5 = \dfrac{1}{2}k\times 0.09^2

k = \dfrac{5\times 2}{0.09^2}

k = 1234.568 N/m

a) work when spring is stretched from  32 cm to 34 cm

x₂= 0.34 -0.30 = 0.04 m

x₁ = 0.32 - 0.30 = 0.02

W = \dfrac{1}{2}k(x_2^2-x_1^2)^2

W = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1234.568 \times (0.04^2-0.02^2)^2

W = 0.741 J

b) F = k x

  25 = 1234.568 × x

     x = 0.0205 m

     x = 2.05 cm

A pretzel company calculated that there is a mean of 75.4 broken pretzels in each production run with a standard deviation of 5.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

P [ Z < 66 ]  = 35,15 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

Population mean μ₀  = 75,4

Standard deviation  σ = 5,2

Then:

P [ Z < 66 ]  =  ( 66 - 75,4 ) / 5,2

P [ Z < 66 ]  = - 9,4 / 5,2

P [ Z < 66 ]  = - 1,81

In z-table we look for the reciprocate area for that  z score and find

P [ Z < 66 ]  = 0,3515

P [ Z < 66 ]  = 35,15 %

The quotient of two numbers is negative. It must be true that? A. Neither number is negative. B. One of the numbers is negative
denpristay [2]

n mathematics, a negative number is a real number that is less than zero. Negative numbers represent opposites. If positive represents movement to the right, negative represents movement to the left. If positive represents above sea level, then negative represents below level. If positive represents a deposit, negative represents a withdrawal. They are often used to represent the magnitude of a loss or deficiency. A debt that is owed may be thought of as a negative asset, a decrease in some quantity may be thought of as a negative increase. If a quantity may have either of two opposite senses, then one may choose to distinguish between those senses—perhaps arbitrarily—as positive and negative. In the medical context of fighting a tumor, an expansion could be thought of as a negative shrinkage. Negative numbers are used to describe values on a scale that goes below zero, such as the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales for temperature. The laws of arithmetic for negative numbers ensure that the common sense idea of an opposite is reflected in arithmetic. For example, − − 3 = 3 because the opposite of an opposite is the original thing.
