Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Set Up</u>

Let's let our number be set by variable <em>n</em>.

We add 7 to it: n + 7

We then double that entire expression: 2(n + 7)

That expression is equal to 82.8: 2(n + 7) = 82.8

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>n</u></em>

  1. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides:                               n + 7 = 41.4
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 7 on both sides:                      n = 34.4

∴ Caroline's original number is 34.4.

A rectangular prism has a base that is 4 m by 6 m and a height of 10 m. If all dimensions are doubled, what happens to the volum
nirvana33 [79]
When the dimensions of a rectangular prism will be doubled, its volume won't only be doubled but it will be 8 times as much.

The original volume of the rectangular prism is LxWxH.

V= LxWxH
V= (6m) (4m) (10m)
V= 240m³

If we double the dimensions, the volume would be

V= 2L x 2W x 2H
V= 2 x 6m x 2 x 4m x 2 x 10m
V= 2 x 2 x 2 x 6m x 4m x 10m
V= 2³ (6m x 4m x 10m)
V= 2³ x 240m³
V = 8 x 240m³
V= 1920 m³

The new volume now is 1,920 m³, which makes the rectangular prism larger than the original.

What is a negative minus a negative
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

It would be a negative or positive depending on the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A negative minus a negative would result in either a positive or negative. For example, -8 - (-9) would be 1 while -8 - (-7) would be -1. If the negative number your subtracting is greater than the number you're subtracting from then it will be positive, vice versa.

15 and 16 pls thank you ASAP ASAP
Delicious77 [7]
Number 16 is D & 15 is D because in number 16 8y can’t equal X but 8 can be in the X&Y’s place. As for number 15 the correct equation is 2y=0-4. Add to 2y and the equation is left with 2y=-4 divide that and you get a positive 2. Pls make my answer the Brainliest, I would rlly appreciate it...Please and Thank You!
