When you square or cube a negative number is it still negative or does it become positive?

Mathematics

When you square a negative number, the result is positive.
(-4)^2 = (-4)ª(-4) = 16

When you cube a negative number, the result is negative.
(-4)^3 = (-4)•(-4)•(-4) = -64

Negatives pair up and cancel out, so odd exponents always have one negative unpaired, making the result negative.

Iluguru sold an artick to bol to gain 20% Thereafteru
Anastasy [175]

Answer: £5

Step-by-step explanation:

Bole sold the article for 125% while he bought it for 100%.

Bole sold for £7.50 so £7.50=125%

£7.50/1.25=£6

125%/1.25=100%

£6=100% (the cost Bole bought the article with from Iluguru)

Iluguru sold it at 120% so 120% is £6

To find 100% we divide by 1.2

£6/1.2=£5

Iluguru bought article for £5 originally

Find a number less than 19 that has more factors than 19,21,23and 25
katen-ka-za [31]
A <em>factor</em> is a number that your number is divisible by.

19 has two factors: 19 and 1.
23 also has two factors: 23 and 1.

21 has four factors: It is divisible by 21 and 1, but also by 3 and 7.
25 has three factors: It is divisible by 25, 1, and 5.

We need a number less than 19 that has five or more factors.
What we can do is multiply a bunch of numbers together (so that we know that our number will be divisible by them) to give it a lot of factors.

Let's try 2 × 2 × 3. This gives us 12.

12 has <em>six</em> factors: 12, 1, 2, 6, 3, and 4.
