Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers. A positive times a positive is a positive, right? But a negative times a negative is also a positive. Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number. So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.
Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives. Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147. What other factors of -147 are there?
What about 7? Try it: -147 / 7 = -21. So here are two factors: -21, and 7. They multiply to -147. Do they add up to -14? Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14. Yup, that works!
Answer: -21 and 7
Yes, you can add a negative and a positive when doing like terms.
Answer:
First find what the sale price of the CD is. 30% off means the CD is selling for 70% of the original cost ( 100%-30% = 70%)
Multiply the original cost by 70%:
17.00 x 0.70 = $11.90 ( sale price)
Now you need to multiply the sale price by the tax percentage to find the amount of tax:
11.90 x 0.08 = 0.95 ( tax)
Now add the sale price and the tax for the total cost:
11.90 + 0.95 = $12.85
x³ - 3x² + 4x - 2
complex roots occur in conjugate pairs
1 + i is a root then so is 1 - i
the factors of the polynomial are therefore
f(x) = (x - 1 )(x - (1 + i))(x - (1 - i))
= (x - 1 )(x² - 2x + 2 ) ( expand factors and simplify )
= x³ - 3x² + 4x - 2
Answer:
1. 1,016 sq. m.
2. 119 sq. m.
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
14 x 18 = 252
18 x 8 = 144
14 x 8 = 112
2 ( 252 ) + 2 ( 144 ) + 2 ( 112 )
504 + 288 + 224 = 1,016 sq m
2.
4 (7 x 5 divided by 2) + (7 x 7) =
7 x 5= 35 divided by 2 = 17.5 x 4 = 70 + 49 = 119 sq. m.
I hope this helps
sorry if i'm wrong
