Which sets are not closed under subtraction

Mathematics
1 answer:
anastassius [24]2 years ago
6 0

If you're referring to the different sets of real numbers, it's the ones that you could try to do subtraction and not get an answer that still in that set.

For example, natural numbers (aka 1, 2, 3, 4, ...) are not, because 7 - 11 = -4 and -4 is not a natural number.

Also, whole numbers (aka 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...) has the same issue.

Basically any set of real numbers that doesn't include negative numbers will have this issue.

How can you determine the domain and range of function.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable.

In plain English, this definition means:

The domain is the set of all possible x-values which will make the function "work", and will output real y-values.

When finding the domain, remember:

The denominator (bottom) of a fraction cannot be zero

The number under a square root sign must be positive in this section

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

61,01%

Step-by-step explanation:

We must consider that her total energy intake is the addition of the energy given by the carbohydrates, fats and proteins she takes.

1g of carbohydrates contains 4kcal

1g of proteins contains 4kcal

1g of fat contains 9 kcal.

That is: 243 g of carbohidrates is equal to 972 kcal; 41g of fat is equal to 369 kcal and 63 g of proteins is equal to 252 kcal.

If we sum up all the calories she intakes in one day, the result is= 972kcal+369kcal+252kcal=1593kcal.

Now, we make a rule of 3: If 1593kcal is the 100% of the intake, then 972kcal = 972kcal*100%/1593kcal = 61,01%

What are the slope of the y intercept of the line represented by the points shown on the table
Art [367]
The Y intercept is where the function passes/ intercepts the y axis. On a table, it is where x is 0, in this case the y intercept is -20. The slope is found by change in y over change in x. So choose any two coordinates to find change. 10/5=2. So your answer is A.

7. Find the distance between the points (13, 8) and (-12, 6)
Alik [6]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  √629 ≈ 25.08

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is useful for this.

  d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

  d = √((-12 -13)² +(6 -8)²) = √(625 +4) = √629 ≈ 25.08

The distance between the points is about 25.08 units.
