Answer:
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.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
28%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of children be 2x, then number of adults be 3x
Total number is 5x
Let number of children under 10 be 7y, number of children be 3y,
then total number of children is 10y
so 2x = 10y, x = 5y, y/x = 1/5
younger children = children under 10, number is 7y
so the % is 7y/5x = 7/5 * y/x = 7/5 * 1/5 = 7/25 = 28/100 = 28%
The answer would be 44.7 not 44.5
Answer:
distance = 5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem we can start by plotting the two points you were provided with (see attached picture). This will help us visualize the problem better.
Now, we need to find the distance between those two points, so in order to do so we can use the distance formula:
in this case the x's and y's are given by the given points, since they are written as ordere pairs. And ordered pairs are written in the form (x,y). So for Point C:
C=(-1,4)
and for point D
D=(2.0)
so we can now use those values in our distance formula so we get:
d=5 units.
5/12 is less than 1/2 because 6/12 = 1/2
Therefore, there are not enough 1/12 pieces to equal or exceed 1/2.
