Rab has trouble remembering the difference between addition of a positive and
negative number and multiplication of a positive and negative number. Explain how
you could clarify the concepts for him. Use an example to back up your explanation.

Answers

Answer 1

Addition of a positive and negative number always means that you are going to subtract the number e. g. 4+-1 = 3. However, multiplication of a positive and negative number means the answer is always negative e. g. 5 x - 3 = - 15.

Answer 2

The addition of positive and negative number will always subtract with sign of maximum value.

The multiplication of positive and negative number will have a negative sign always.

AdditionConcept for the addition of positive and negative number

When two numbers which have different sign are added, they will always be subtracted from each other. The sign will vary accordingly.

with negative sign: when two numbers are added such that the number with negative sign has the larger value, then both numbers will get subtracted but with negative sign.

Example: Consider two number -5 and 4

= -5 + 4

= -1

Here, 5 is the larger value. So, the sign comes is negative.

with positive sign: when two numbers are added such that the number with positive sign has the larger value, then both numbers will get subtracted but  with positive sign.

Example: consider two number 5 and -4.

= 5 + (-4)

= 1

Here, 5 is the large number. So, the sign comes is positive.

MultiplicationConcept for the multiplication of positive and negative number:

When two numbers with opposite signs are multiplied, the answer is always a negative number.

Example; Consider two numbers 4 and -5.

On multiplication,

4×(-5) = -20

Thus, the multiplication of two numbers with different signs will always give a negative number.

Four pounds of tea and 5 pounds of coffee cost $88.30, while 9 pounds of tea and
six pounds of coffee cost $144.60. What is the cost of each per pound?
Cost of 1 pound of tea = $4.78 and cost of 1 pound of coffee = $12.88
Cost of 1 pound of tea = $9.20 and cost of 1 pound of coffee = $10.30
O Cost of 1 pound of tea = $8.20 and cost of 1 pound of coffee = $10.30
O Cost of 1 pound of tea = $9.20 and cost of 1 pound of coffee = $9.30

Answers

Answer:

Cost of 1 pound tea is $ 9.2.

Cost of 1 pound coffee is $ 10.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of tea is $ per pound and cost of coffee is $ q per pound.

4 p + 5 q = 88.30 .... (1)

9 p + 6 q = 144.60 ....(2)

Solving (1) and (2) we get

p = $ 9.2

q = $ 10.3

f(x)=x2+10 and g(x)=|x|

Find (f+g)(2).

Answers

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} + 10 \\ \therefore \: f(2) = {2}^{2} + 10 \\ \therefore \: f(2) = 4 + 10 \\ \therefore \: f(2) = 14 \\ \\ g(x) = |x| \\ \therefore \:g(2) = |2| \\ \therefore \:g(2) = 2 \\ \\ f(2) + g(2) = 14 + 2 \\ \red{ \bold{(f + g)(2) = 14}}[/tex]

Step by step Explanation:

[tex]f(x) = x2 + 10g(x) = 1[/tex]

[tex](f + g)(2).[/tex]

Step 1

The equation is in standard form.

[tex]xf = 10gx + x2[/tex]

Step 2

Divide both sides by x.

[tex] \frac{xf}{x} = \frac{10gx + x2}{x} [/tex]

Step 3

Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.

[tex]f = \frac{10gx + x2}{x} [/tex]

Step 4

Divide x 2 + 10 g x by x.

[tex]f = 10g + \frac{x2}{x} [/tex]

My Answer is.

The one of (L,b)= (5m, 10m) is the only correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

P= 2(L+b)

A= L×b

make b subject of formula in area we have;

b= A/L

in perimeter; p= 2(L +(A/L))

p= (L²+A)/L

pL= L²+A

L²-pL+A= 0

L²-30L+50=0

L²-25L-5L+50=0

L(L-25)-5(L-25)=0

(L-5)(L-25)= 0

L= 5 or 25m

x+3/2 + (x-1) = 4/5 ​

Answers

Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{3}{20}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] + (x - 1) = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Multiply through by 10 ( the LCM of 2 and 5 ) to clear the fractions

10x + 15 + 10(x - 1) = 8

10x + 15 + 10x - 10 = 8

20x + 5 = 8 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

20x = 3 ( divide both sides by 20 )

x = [tex]\frac{3}{20}[/tex]

x + 3/2 + x - 1 = 4/5

Collect the same terms

x + x + 3/2 - 1 = 4/5

2x + 3/2 - 2/2 = 4/5

2x + (3 - 2)/2 = 4/5

2x + 1/2 = 4/5

2x + 0.5 = 0.8

Subtract both sides 0.5

2x + 0.5 - 0.5 = 0.8 - 0.5

2x + 0 = 0.3

2x = 3/10

Divide both sides by 2

2x ÷ 2 = ( 3/10 ) ÷ 2

x = 3/10 × 1/2

x = 3/20

_________________________________

Check :

3/20 + 3/2 + ( 3/20 - 1 ) = 4/5

3/20 + 30/20 + ( 3/20 - 20/20 ) = 4/5

(3 + 30)/20 + (3 - 20)/20 = 4/5

33/20 - 17/20 = 4/5

(33 - 17)/20 = 4/5

16/20 = 4/5

4 × 4 / 4 × 5 = 4/5

4/5 = 4/5

Thus we found the correct value of x .

Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to y = -4x-1
and passes through the point, (2, 2)?
O A. y = -4x+10
O B. y = 1/4x+2
O C. y = -4x + 4
O D. y = -4x - 6

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient

For line y=-4x-1, the gradient is -4 and so that of this new line will also be -4

Now,

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=-4(x-2)

y-2=-4x+8

y=-4x+8+2

y=-4x+10

(4x + 2i)(4x − 2i)
B.
(4x + 2)(4x − 2)
C.
(4x + 2)2
D.
(4x − 2i)2

Answers

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

C and D do not create any x² terms when doing the multiplications. so, they are out.

B stands for (a+b)×(a-b) = a² - b².

so, that would give us a "-4" at the end and is not fitting to the "+4" term at the end of the original expression.

that leaves us with A.

let's verify :

(4x+2i)(4x-2i)

it follows the same rule as B :

(a+b)(a-b) = a² - b²

a = 4x

b = 2i

you remember, i = sqrt(-1).

so, we get

(4x)² - (2i)² = 16x² - 4×(sqrt(-1))² = 16x² - 4×(-1) = 16x²+4

Answers

Answer:

$2,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The correct years is 4 not 44

The Principal  = $10,000

Time period = 4 years

Rate = 6 % p.a.

Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time

Simple Interest = $10,000 * 6% * 44

Simple Interest = $2,400

So, the amount of interest Diego earned after four years is $2,400
