Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is actually a very important question and it is very subtle. Let's just take an ordinary segment.
Suppose we have a segment that is this long
=========o=========
The segment up to the o is nine equal signs long.
The segment after the o is also nine equal signs long.
Here's the crunch. Since they are equal, the ratio is 1 to 1. The segment is divided in half.
Now take the second half of the question.
======o============
The left side of the o is 6 equal signs long.
The right side of the o is 12 equal signs long.
The ratio is 1:2. There are still 18 equal signs but now they are divided as 6/12 which is not the same thing as 9/9
Very interesting question.
Answer:
D) -8
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add a positive and a negative, you end up subtracting. If your sum is lower than any of the numbers you are adding together, then there is a negative. In this case, your only negative number is -8, but if there were others, you could find this equation by doing negative six minus two (because the equation was originally addition, it would still be subtraction to check your work or find the answer in this case.)
Hopefully you find this useful :)
it would be 800 because you moving it up 1 so yea
