Answer:
-1 + 2 = 1
1 + (-2) = -1
-1 - 2 = -3
1 - (-2) = 3
Step-by-step explanation
When you subtract use keep change change
Rule 1 when you add : If the signs are the same add the numbers and take the sign of the bigger number.
Rule 2 when you add : If the signs are different subtract the numbers and take the sign of the bigger number.
I wanted to help you understand and i hope i did that!
I believe your answer is 6 seconds.
Because the height of the ball = -16(x² - 5x - 6), when the height of the ball is 0, which is when it is on the ground, we can set -16(x² - 5x - 6) equal to 0. This also allows us to divide by -16, and then we can solve the equation:
x² - 5x - 6 = 0
(x - 6)(x + 1) = 0
So x = 6 or x = -1, and because a quantity of time cannot be negative, x would have to be 6, which means it takes 6 seconds for the ball to reach 0 feet.
I hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9.
Let 2x, 7x and 9x be the amounts of money that David, Agil and Frances get respectively.
We are told that Frances gets $80 more than David. So we can write this information in an equation as:

Now let us solve for x.


Now let us substitute
in 7x (amount of money that Egil gets).

Upon cancelling out 7 from numerator and denominator we will get,
Therefore, Egil will get $80.

Answer:
x = 1.8
Step-by-step explanation:
2 ( 4x-3) - 8 = 4-2x
Distribute
8x -6 -8 = 4- 2x
Combine like terms
8x - 14 = 4 - 2x
Add 2x to each side
8x - 14 +2x = 4-2x+2x
10x-14 = 4
Add 14 to each side
10x-14+14 = 4+14
10x = 18
Divide by 10
10x/10 = 18/10
x = 1.8
