The sum of two numbers is -12.6 identify the two negative addends that make the statement true

Mathematics

The sum of the two numbers = -12.6

The two negative addends that make the statement "<em>The sum of two numbers is -12.6</em>" true are -8.6 and -4

Let x represent the first negative number

Let y represent the second negative number

x   +  y   =   -12.6

To make the above equation to be true, assume a value f x that is negative but greater than -12.6

Let x = -8.6

Substitute x = -8.6 into the equation x + y = -12.6

-8.6  +  y   =  -12.6

Add 8.6 to both sides of the equation

-8.6  +  8.6  +  y   =  -12.6  +  8.6

y   =  -4

As a proof:

-8.6  -  4   =   -12.6

The two negative addends that make the statement "<em>The sum of two numbers is -12.6</em>" true are -8.6 and -4

Effectus [21]

Answer:

50,803,200 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation, since you should alternate girl-boy or boy-girl, the line-up can either start with a boy or a girl kicking which would yield one of the two following patterns:

BGBGBGBGBGBGBG or GBGBGBGBGBGBGB.

For each of those patterns, there are 7! ways to arrange all boys and 7! ways to arrange all girls. The number of ways that a line-up can be made for one round of kicking is:

n=2*7!*7!\\n=2*(7*6*5*4*3*2)^2\\n=50,803,200\ ways

There are 50,803,200 ways to set the line-up.

Answer:

  3) y = -1

  5) x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to recognize that the equation describes a vertical line in problem 3 and a horizontal line in problem 5. The perpendicular to a vertical line is a horizontal line, and vice versa.

__

3. To make the desired horizontal line go through the point (-8, -1) the y-value of the line must match that of the point:

  y = -1

__

5. To make the desired vertical line go through the point (-14, 81), the x-value of the line must match that of the point:

  x = -14

melisa1 [442]

Answer: 16.56\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You must draw a right triangle as the one attached, where "x" is the lenght  in feet of the ramp.

You need to use the following Trigonometric Identity:

sin\alpha=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

In this case you can identify that:

\alpha =25\°\\\\opposite=7\\\\hypotenuse=x

Now you must substitute these values into sin\alpha=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}:

sin(25\°)=\frac{7}{x}

Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value.

This is:

sin(25\°)=\frac{7}{x}\\\\xsin(25\°)=7\\\\x=\frac{7}{sin(25\°)}\\\\x=16.56
