I don't think it really matters if the denominator is negative in a literal equation. Think about a simpler example with numbers. Does it matter whether a fraction is -1/2 or 1/-2? No, they are both the same. Therefore, I would say that the denominator of a literal equation can be negative.

Good luck with your exams!

What is the surface area of the figure?<br> 240<br> 48<br> 192
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

240 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to determine the surface area of the figure;

To get the area we add the are of all the surfaces;

Area of triangle;

Area = 0.5 × b × h

There are two triangles;

Therefore;

Area of the two triangles;

Area = 0.5 × 6 × 8 × 2

        = 48 cm²

Area of the rectangles;

Area of a rectangle = Length × width

Area of the first rectangle;

 = 6 cm × 8 cm

 = 48 cm²

Area of the second rectangle

  = 8 cm × 8 cm

  = 64 cm²

Area of the third rectangle

 = 10 cm × 8 cm

 = 80 cm²

The total surface area will be;

 Area = 48 cm² + 48 cm² + 64 cm² + 80 cm²

          = 240 cm²

What will happen to the size of the population in the long run?
Irina-Kira [14]
I'm assuming there's a chart, but if there isn't,

The population will continue to increase and decrease, as the population will grow until it's reached its carrying capacity, and then decrease because there aren't enough resources, and then increase, then decrease, etc.
