Explanation:
This can be explained by thinking numbers on the number line as:
Lets take we have to multiply a positive number (say, 2) with a negative number say (-3)
<u>2×(-3)</u>
Suppose someone is standing at 0 on the number line and to go to cover -3 , the person moves 3 units in the left hand side. Since, we have to compute for 2×(-3), The person has to cover the same distance twice. At last, he will be standing at -6, which is a negative number.
A image is shown below to represent the same.
<u>Thus, a positive times a negative is a negative number.</u>
Answer:
S = v1 t1 = 7 t1 traveling downstream
S = v2 t2 = 5 t2 traveling upstream
7 t1 = 5 t2
7 (6 - t2) = 5 t2 since t1 + t2 = 6
42 - 7 t2 = 5 t2
t2 = 42 / 12 = 3.5 hrs so t1 = 2.5 hrs
S = 7 t1 = 7 * 2.5 = 17.5 mi
Also, S = 5 t2 = 5 * 3.5 = 17.5 mi
Answer:
Top right
Step-by-step explanation:
The two sides are parallel to each other. :)
I assume you are calculating the total area to be painted.
Then 3 x 8.3 x 7.5 = 186.75 sq. ft.
2.6 because you substract
