Do?  I'd answer by saying that subtracting a negative quantity is equivalent to adding the magnitude of that quantity.  For example, 2 - (-3)  = 2 + 3  = 5.

A negative sign in front of another actually calls up addition.

Four equivalent forms of a quadratic function are given. Which form displays the zeros of function h?OA. (X) = -2(2x - 8)OB.h(x)
Setler79 [48]

The form of quadratic representing the roots can be expressed as,

h(x)=a(x-p)(x-q)

Where p and q are the roots of the equation.

The form which represents the zeroes of function h is,

h=-4(x-)(x+2)

Where 2 and -2 are the roots of the function h(x).

Thus, option (B) is correct.

A committee of 5 people is to be chosen from a group of 8 women and 10 men. How many diffferent committees are possible? How man
Jet001 [13]
A) 5 to be chosen among a Total : 10 Men + 8 Women

¹⁸C₅ = (18!)/(5!)(13!) = 8,568 groups of five

b) A must to have men and women. If so we have to deduct all groups of 5 that are all men and all group of 5 that are all women
Groups of 5 with only men: ¹⁰C₅ = 252
Groups of 5 with only women: ⁸C₅ = 56

So number of committees of 5 men and women mixed =
8568 - 252 - 56 = 8,260 committees 

c) 3 Women and 2 Men:

⁸C₃ x ¹⁰C₂ = 2,520 groups of 3 W and 2 M

d) More women than men, it means:
  3 W + 2 M OR (we have found it in c) = 2,520)
  4 W + 1 M OR   ⁸C₄ x ¹⁰C₁   →→→→ =    700
  5 W + 0 M OR   ⁸C₅ x ¹⁰C₀   →→→→  =     56

Total where W>M = 3,276 groups of 5 where women are at least 3
