What is the result of subtracting a number greater than -3 and less than -2 from a number greater than 1 and less than 6

Answer:

3 < M - N < 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's write the inequalities for these two numbers.

"a number greater than -3 and less than -2"

 -3 < N < -2

"a number greater than 1 and less than 6"

1 < M < 6

We want to subtract the first one to the second one, so we want to get:

M - N

Because this is a subtraction, the lower bound of the subtraction happens when we have the minimum value of M and the maximum value of N.

Then the minimum value of M - N happens when:

M = 1

N = -2

(notice that M can't be equal to 1, and N can't be equal to -2, we just do this to find the lower bound)

Then the lower bound is:

M - N = 1 - (-2) = 3

We already got:

3 < M - N

For the upper bound, we need to find the difference between the largest value of M, and the lowest value of N

This is:

M = 6

N = -3

M - N = 6 - (-3) = 9

Then:

M - N < 9

If we take both of our results, the possible values of the subtraction are given by:

3 < M - N < 9

Someone help me pls
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

y=1/2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to know is that the slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of the other slope. Find the slope of this line, which is -2. The opposite reciprocal is 1/2. So, you know that the perpendicular line is equal to y=1/2x. Plug the x coordinate (4) in for x to have: y=1/2(4). Multiply 4 by 1/2 to get y=2. Since the y coordinate is supposed to equal 5, add 3 to y=2 to get 5. Since 3 is the amount we added, thats where the y intercept will be. Hope this helped!

What is the answer to the equation 14.95x6.5?
NeTakaya

Answer:

97,175

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't think It's necessary, but I am gonna do it anyways.

15*6=90

15*7=105

105 - 90 =15

15/2 =7,5

90+7,5= 97,5

15*6,5=  97,5

0,05*6,5= 0,325

97,5 - 0,325 =   97,175

Flauer [41]

Answer:

t = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

T is 25 because you take 1 away from the t+1 side and add the 1 to the 24 side.
