Answer:
40 hollow blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
12/3= 4 hollow blocks per hour
10x4=40 hollow blocks in 10 hours
21/x greater than or equal to 4. I think
Find the inside angle B of the smaller triangle using the base (4) and height (6)
smaller part of B = arctan(4/6) = 33.69 degrees
full B = 90 degrees - smaller B gives you the other part of B for the left hand side
so 90 - 33.69 = 56.31
now AD = 6 x tan(56.31) = 9 feet
answer is G
Lets solve for x.
0.8x = 50. - Remember that the jacket was 80% of the original price.
Thus, divide by x.
x = 50 / 0.8
x = 62.5
What's happening is that every subtraction can be written as "addition of the opposite."
18-5 = 18 + (-5)
One reason this is done in the work you showed is that they're trying to show why you distribute the negative and the 1 into the parentheses, why you multiply everything in the parentheses by "-1" and not just 1.
The other reason is to later to be able to move the individual terms around, so you'll be able to combine like terms.
When you move terms around, the sign has to stay attached to the term, so writing all the subtractions as addition helps keep the sign attached.
