Answer:

+(−) Two unlike signs become a negative sign(-)

Step-by-step explanation:

For example....

7+(−2)

= 7 − 2

= 5

here two unlike signs become a negative sign...

<h3> for more example:-</h3><h2><em>When you are adding a negative number to a positive number you are effectively subtracting the second number from the first. ... And then you add the negative number, which means you are moving to the left – in the negative direction. Basically you are subtracting the 2. The answer is 2.</em></h2>

Estimate how many times larger 2 x 10-5 is than 4 x 10-12 in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10.
zmey [24]

The number of times which the number 2 x 10-5 is greater than 4 x 10-12 is; 5 × 10⁶ times

To estimate how many times larger 2 x 10-5 is than 4 x 10-12 in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10;

We must evaluate as follows;

  • 2 x 10-5 divided by 4 x 10-12

\frac{2 \times  {10}^{ - 5} }{4 \times  {10}^{ - 12} }

Therefore; we have;

  • 0.5 × 10⁷

Since we are required to express the answer in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10; we have;

  • 5 × 10⁶

Greeley [361]

Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

x= the ideal mark for his third test

100 + 63 + x/3 = 85

163+x=85x3

163 + x = 255

x=92

He would need to get at least a 92 to have the 85 average.

On her way home from school, Palama walked 5 blocks west to the grocery store, 2 blocks south to visit her aunt, then 5 blocks n
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

the home is

5.83 blocks 31° North of west of the school

Step-by-step explanation:

Resolving the displacement to vertical and horizontal axis

Let north and south represent positive and negative vertical axis, also east and west represent positive and negative horizontal axis;

Vertical axis; , 2 blocks south to visit her aunt, then 5 blocks north to go home

Ry = -2 + 5

Ry = +3

Horizontal axis; 5 blocks west to the grocery store

Rx = -5

Resultant distance = R = √(Rx^2 + Ry^2)

R =√(-5^2 + 3^2)

R = √34

R = 5.83 blocks

For the direction;

∅ = arctan(Ry/Rx) = arctan(3/5)

∅ = 31°

Therefore, the home is

5.83 blocks 31° North of west of the school.
