Subtracting a negative number is like removing debt. When you remove debt, you effectively gave someone money and the value of their bank account increased.

Another answer is that “subtraction is addition of the opposite,” so subtracting a negative number is really adding a positive number, which again causes the other number to increase.

Hi! I'm happy to help!

When you remove a negative, you are removing the thing that decreases, which causes stuff to increase.

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

You push your younger sister on a swing one time and then allow your sister to
Ber [7]

Answer:

My sister will swing the total distance = 40 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first swing my sister travels a distance of 8 feet.

In every successive swing she travels 80% of the distance of the previous distance.

So the sequence formed by the distance traveled in every swing will be a geometric sequence.

First term of the sequence 'a' = 8 feet

common ratio 'r' = 0.80

Since this sequence is an infinite geometric sequence,

Sum of this sequence = \frac{a}{(1-r)}  [Since r < 1]

                                     = \frac{8}{1-0.8}

                                     = \frac{8}{0.2}

                                     = 40 feet

Therefore, my sister will cover the total distance = 40 feet

what is the final amount of 17.50 that is put into a saving account with 4 annual interest rate compounded yearly for 25 years?
pickupchik [31]
To find the total amount, you will use the formula for finding compounded interest.  This means you will be paid interest on top of the interest you have earned each year.

A = P(1 + r)^nt
P stands for the principal.
r is the interest rate when compounded annually
nt is the number of years

A = 17.50(1 + 0.04)^25
A = $46.65

This person would have $46.65 after 25 years.

What is the intersection of the three sets: A = {0, 2, 3, 6, 8}, B = {2, 3, 6, 8, 9}, and C = {1, 2, 4, 8, 9}? A. {2, 8, 9} B. {
Ugo [173]

Answer:

{2,8}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the same thing as asking what element (in this case what number) is in all 3 sets.

0 isn't in all 3 sets because it isn't in B.

2 is in all 3 sets

3 isn't because it isn't in C

4 isn't in A.

6 isn't in C.

8 is in all 3 sets.

9 isn't in A

So the elements that are in the 3 sets are {2,8}.
