-2 (3+5y-10) = 34
Step 1) -6-10y+20=34
Step 2) -10y+20=40
Step 3) -10y=20
Step 4) y = -2
Answer is -2

What I did to solve this
1. First add 10 to -10
2. Add 10 to 34
3. Minus 3 to the 3 and now 44(was 34)
4. Plus 2 to the -2 and to 41
5. 5y divided by 5 and 43 divided by 5
6. Y=8.6

How do you divide a negative number and a positive number? My problem is -19÷13.

cestrela7 [59]

When you divide a negative and a positive, you don't have to worry about the negative that much. Just divide like normal, and then add the negative at the end. However, if you divide a negative by a negative, it's double negative, and therefore positive. So in the case of -19 / 13, the answer would be negative.

Hope this helps! :)

Explain how two amounts of change can be the same but the percent of change can be different

densk [106]

If I understand the question correctly, you can have the same amount of change be two different percentages by having 4 quarters and 100 pennies.
Each quarter is 25%
Each penny is 1%
(am i explaining this right)

Find the measure of the the sides of DEF then classify it by it sides. <br> D(8,-6) E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Part a) The measure of the sides of triangle DEF are

$d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units$

$d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units$

$d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units$

Part b) Is a scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have the coordinates

D(8,-6) E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

step 1

Find the length side DE

D(8,-6) E(-1,-3)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3+6)^{2}+(-1-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(9)^{2}}$

$d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units$

step 2

Find the length side EF

E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(5+3)^{2}+(-2+1)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units$

step 3

Find the length side DF

D(8,-6) F(-2,5)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(5+6)^{2}+(-2-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(11)^{2}+(-10)^{2}}$

$d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units$

step 4

Classify the triangle by the measure of its sides

we have

$d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units$

$d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units$

$d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units$

Is a scalene triangle, because is a triangle in which all three sides have different lengths.

Describe the end behavior of the function:<br> f(x) = 1/2*2^x +3

suter [353]

Although there is (1/2) in the front of the expression, the base is 2, not (1/2). (1/2) is a positive number, and 2 is a positive number larger than 1, so as x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches infinity as well. as x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches 3.
