the quotient of m and 7 = m/7
Answer: The corrected statement is A - B = -B + A.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the subtraction of a matrix B may be considered as the addition of the matrix (-1)B.
We are given to check whether the commutative law of addition permit us to state that A - B = B - A.
If not, We are to correct the statement.
If the subtraction A - B is considered a the addition A + (-B), then the commutative law should be stated as follows :
A + (-B) = (-B) + A.
That is, A - B = -B + A.
Thus, the corrected statement is A - B = -B + A, not B - A.
The keyword is "sum" which tells you x, y, and z are being added. One half of the sum means that the sum of the three numbers is going to be divided by 2.
x + y + z

Out of 1,200 students, 700 are boys. Therefore, the fraction would be

.
To convert this into a percentage, divide 700 by 1,200.

= 0.583333 (or just 0.583 if you round)
Multiply 0.583
by 100 to get a percentage.
0.583 · 100 =
58.3So, the percent of boys at the school is
58.3%.
