Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

3+-4

Since the signs are opposite, we subtract the two numbers and take the sign of the larger

4-3 =1

The sign of the larger number (-4) is negative

-1

3+-4 = -1

For this case, what we must do is solve the following algebraic expression:

$3 + (-4)$

According to the law of signs we have to:

$+ * + = +\\+ * - = -\\- * - = +$

Thus, applying the aforementioned law we have to: $3 + (-4) = 3-4$

Rewriting we have:

$3 + (-4) = -1\\$

Answer:

$3 + (-4) = -1\\$

The area of trapezoid TRAP is 100 m squared

Anastasy [175]

Answer: 30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________

Area of a trapezoid, "A" = (1/2) ( b₁ + b₂) h ;
______________________________________________
or, write as: A = ( b₁ + b₂) h / 2 ;
___________________________________
in which: A = area;
b₁ = length of "base 1" (choose either one of the 2 (two bases);
b₂ = length of "base 2" (use the base that is remaining);
h = height of trapezoid;
____________________________________________
From the information given:
___________________________
A = 100 m² ;
h = 5 m
b₁ = 10 m
b₂ = x
___________________________
Find "x", which is: "b₂" ;
__________________________
A = ( b₁ + b₂) h / 2 ;
_____________________________
Plug in our known values; and plug in "x" for "b₂" ; and solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
100 m² = [(10m + x) (5m)] / 2 ; Solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
(10m + x) (5m) = (2)* (100m²) ;
_________________________________________________________
(5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
___________________________________________
Note: The distributive property of multiplication:
____________________________________________
a(b+c) = ab + ac ;

a(b−c) = ab <span>− ac ;
</span>____________________________________________

We have: (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
____________________________________________
So: (5m) (10m + x) = (5m*10m) + (5m * x) ;

= 50m² + (5m)x ;
_______________________________________________
→ 50m² + (5m)x = 200m² ;
_______________________________________________
Divide the ENTIRE equation by "5m" ;
_______________________________________________
→ { 50m² + (5m)x } / 5m = (200m² / 5m) ;
_______________________________________________
→ 10m + x = 40m ;
________________________________________________
Now, subtract "10m" from EACH side of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________
→ 10m + x − 10m = 40m − 10m ;

to get:

→ x = 30 m ; which is our answer.
___________________________________________________
Answer: 30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .

Pythagorean theorem. Appreciate the help with this question . Thank you very much who ever help with the question .

NikAS [45]

$\textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2} \qquad \begin{cases} c=\stackrel{hypotenuse}{x}\\ a=\stackrel{adjacent}{30}\\ b=\stackrel{opposite}{40}\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ x=\sqrt{30^2+40^2}\implies x=\sqrt{2500}\implies x=50$
