Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers. A positive times a positive is a positive, right? But a negative times a negative is also a positive. Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number. So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.
Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives. Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147. What other factors of -147 are there?
What about 7? Try it: -147 / 7 = -21. So here are two factors: -21, and 7. They multiply to -147. Do they add up to -14? Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14. Yup, that works!
Answer: -21 and 7
Answer:
She could make 5 of each type.
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the number of 0.5 pound hamburgers and y is the number of 0.25 pound hamburgers:
0.5x + 0.25y = 3.75
Divide through by 0.25:
2x + y = 15
Some whole numbers which fit this relation are x = 5 and y = 5.
Answer:
It is either a or b. since 8-2 does not equal 14, and 8+2 does not equal 14. I think it is most likely to be a though.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b. both functions have a negative slope
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
This function is of the form 
, where 
is the slope and 
is the y-intercept.
We can also determine the slope of the function in the table using any two points, say 
.
The slope formula is given by,
.
If 
, then,
.
We can see that both functions have a negative slope.
The correct answer is B.
