How do you solve -1/12 - (-11/12)

Mathematics
1 answer:
valentinak56 [21]3 years ago

-1/12 - (-11/12) would change into -1/12 + 11/12 because a double negative (bold print) would become a positive. The answer to the new problem would be 10/12 or 5/6 (depending on if it says to simplify).

Barbara made a bad investment. Rather than earning interest, her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week! After just one w
pochemuha

Answer: She started with $160.

It will take 6 weeks before she has less than half of what she originally invested.

Step-by-step explanation:

If her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week, it means that the rate at which it is decreasing is exponential.

We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^t

Where

A represents the value of the investment after t weeks.

t represents the number of weeks.

P represents the initial value of the investment.

r represents rate of depreciation.

From the information given,

A = $142.40

r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11

t = 1

Therefore

142.40 = P(1 - 0.11)^1

142.40 = P(0.89)

P = 142.4/0.89

P = 160

For her to have half of what she invested originally, then

80 = 160(0.89)^t

80/160 = (0.89)^t

0.5 = (0.89)^t

Taking log of both sides to base 10

Log 0.5 = log0.89^t = tlog0.89

- 0.3010 = - 0.051t

t = - 0.3010/- 0.051

t = 5.9

Approximately 6 weeks

Help please :c!
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

see the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

m∠1+m∠2=180° -----> supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

we have

m∠1=27° ----> given problem

substitute the measure of m∠1 in the equation above and solve for m∠2

27°+m∠2=180°

Subtract 27° both sides

27°+m∠2-27°=180°-27° ----> by subtraction property of equality

m∠2=153°

A rectangle has an area of x^2-11x+30 and the length of x-5. What is the width?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L x W

A / L = W

x^2-11x+30 / x -5  = W (Simplify the numerator)

(x - 6) x ( x - 5) / x - 5  = W     (Cancel the similar ones which is (x - 5) )

x - 6 = W

Hope that helps
