Hi there!
Here is what the rules says
+ * + = + (Plus times plus = plus)
+*- = - (Plus times minus = minus)
- * - = + (Minus times minus = Plus
- * + = - (minus times plus = minus)
You need to know the rules by heart because you will use it a lot.
So let see how it works with the problem
6 -(-7)
What does the rules say? It says
- * - = plus
So, we gonna use PLUS for the sign
6-(-7) = 6 + 7 = 13
13 is the correct answer.
I hope I helped. Please let me know if you have more questions.
Answer:
The line equation is y = 1.5x + 3
Fill the first space with '1.5' and the second with '3'
Step-by-step explanation:
The generic model for a line equation is:
y = ax + b
To find the parameters 'a' and 'b', we can use two points of the graph in the equation.
Using the point (0, 3), we have:
3 = 0*a + b
b = 3
Using the point (-2, 0) and the value of b above, we have:
0 = -2*a + b
2a = 3
a = 1.5
So the line equation is y = 1.5x + 3
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation: add all sides together
<u>Given</u>:
Given that the bases of the trapezoid are 21 and 27.
The midsegment of the trapezoid is 5x - 1.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
The value of x can be determined using the trapezoid midsegment theorem.
Applying the theorem, we have;

where b₁ and b₂ are the bases of the trapezoid.
Substituting Midsegment = 5x - 1, b₁ = 21 and b₂ = 27, we get;

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 2, we have;

Simplifying, we have;

Adding both sides of the equation by 2, we get;

Dividing both sides of the equation by 10, we have;

Thus, the value of x is 5.
