13. I hope this helped. :) Brainliest answer please. :)
Answer:
The statement is wrong. a-b can be positive but not always.
Step-by-step explanation:
There can be three possible situations that are:
- a>b
- a<b
- a=b
Now taking first condition, the result will be positive because a smaller integer is subtracted from a greater one. Such as 5-2=3
In second condition, the result will be negative because a greater integer is subtracted from smaller one. Such as 2-5= -3
In the third condition, the result will always be zero because both the integers will cancel each other. Such as 5-5=0
Add it together, it should be 1,532,482 (I think)
The amount of work done by Kalon in an hour is equal to 1/4. This is based on his time to finish the job. Letting x be the number of hours Marna can finish the job alone will let her finish 1/x of the job in an hour. If their rates are added together and multiplied by the number of hours they worked together, the product should be one whole job.
(1/4 + 1/x)(1 5/7) = 1
The value of x is 3. Therefore, it will take 3 hours for Marna to clean the chimney alone.
A line perpendicular to y = 2x - 1 must have the slope -1/2 (negative reciprocal of 2).
Thus, the eq'n of the new line is y+2 = (-1/2)(x+2).
