1. What is the opposite of -2? 2
2. When we add opposites together they will always equal = ? 0
This is also known as what ?
additive inverse
Adding with integers with SAME signs.
-8 + -3 = -11
-12 + -15 = -27
-3 + -9 + -25 = -37
Answer:
(7, 24, 26)
Step-by-step explanation:
A Pythagorean triple must have an odd number of even numbers. The triple (7, 24, 26) is not a Pythagorean triple.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
For an odd integer n, a triple can be formed as ...
(n, (n²-1)/2, (n²+1)/2)
That is, the following will be Pythagorean triples.
- (3, 4, 5)
- (5, 12, 13)
- (7, 24, 25)
- (9, 40, 41)
- (11, 60, 61)
Another series involves even numbers and numbers separated by 2:
(2n, n²-1, n²+1)
- (8, 15, 17)
- (12, 35, 37)
- (16, 63, 65)
In this list, if n is not a multiple of 2, the triple will be a multiple of one from the odd-number series.
It is a good idea to remember a few of these, as they tend to show up in Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry problems.
Investment: cost of her education + salary as sales clerk during two years
Investment = 18,000 (2) + 20,000 = 36,000 + 20,000 = 56,000
Time to recover investment = 56,000/35,000 = 1.6
In less than two years, after she starts to work Niah will have recoverd her investment.
