Evaluate the following: −3 − (−8).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a negative next to a negative, you can turn it into a positive. For example the -(-8) would now be +8. This is called the airplane strategy because it forms a airplane if you flip you sheet of paper or your device.

From here, we have -3+8.

Now we subtract since each value has a different sign and we get +5.

Hope this helps!! :)

Solve for x. 4(x+1)= -3x-10

Answers

Answer:

4x+4=-3x-10

   4x+3x=-10-4

      x= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

P.E.M.D.A.S

4(x + 1) = 4x+4

now we have 4x + 4 = -3x - 10.

now we can combine like terms which are x

4x and -3x, to combine like terms we can either subtract 4x on both sides or -3x on both sides, but lets do 4x.

now we have this

4x + 4 = -3x - 10.

-4x          -4x

= 4 = -7x - 10

now we can isolate x by its self so we have to add 10 on both sides

4 = -7x - 10

+10       +10

and we get

14 = -7x

now we can divide -7 to get x by its self

14/-7 = -7/x

we get for our final answer

x = -2

Jerrod’s family drove 1,778 miles from Denver, Colorado, to New York City. They averaged 61.7 miles per hour on the trip. Which is the best estimate of the number of hours the family drove?

Answers

Given parameters:

Distance traveled  = 1778miles

Average speed  = 61.7 miles per hour

Unknown:

Time taken for the travel = ?

Speed is a physical quantity. It is the rate of change of distance with time.

 It can be mathematically expressed as;

           Speed  = [tex]\frac{distance}{time taken}[/tex]

  The unknown here is the time taken;

   Substitute the parameters and solve for it;

      61.7  = [tex]\frac{1778}{ time taken}[/tex]

          time taken  = [tex]\frac{1778}{61.7}[/tex]   = 28.8hrs

The time taken is  28.8hrs

Answer:

the answer for this would be 30 hours.

The table shows expressions to represent the number of students involved in different activities. The number of students involved in sports and student council is equal to the number of students involved in band and drama club. Model the situation with an equation. Select the correct expression for each box. Then solve the equation.​

Answers

Answer:

6n + 7 = 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students involved in sports = 5n + 7

Number of students involved in student council = n

Number of students involved in sports and student council = (5n + 7) + n = 5n + 7 + n = 6n + 7

Number of students involved in band = 3n - 2

Number of students involved in drama club = 2(2n + 1)

Number of students involved in band and drama club = (3n - 2) + 2(2n + 1) = 3n - 2 + 4n + 2 = 7n

Equation to model number of students involved in sports and student council which equal number of students involved in band and drama club:

6n + 7 = 7n

Option A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

  The  95% confidence interval of the mean  score of all  New Jersey third graders  is  (58.957 ,  63.043)

   The sample size is  n =  184

   The sample average is  [tex]\mu = 65 \ points[/tex]

   The standard deviation is   [tex]\sigma  =  13 \ points[/tex]

    The  90%  confidence interval for the difference in mean score between lowa and New Jersey is  (-6.33 ,  -1.67 )

   The  p-value is  [tex]p-value  =  0.0048[/tex]

Generally given that the p-values is very low compared to the level of significance (100 -90 =  10% = 0.10 )  we can reject the null hypothesis which is usually a  claim that the means of the  population are the same )

Hence the population means are different .

Find the mass of the object if it has a volume of 20 mL and a density of 3 g/mL.

Answers

Answer:

60 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the density formula, D = m/v, where m is the mass and v is volume

Plug in the volume and density, then solve for the mass:

D = m/v

3 = m/20

60 = m

So, the mass is 60 g

Given :

Volume of object = 20 mL

Density of object = 3 g/mL

To Find :

We have to find mass of the object[tex].[/tex]

Solution :

★ Density is defined as the mass of object per unit volume.

It is a scar quantity having only magnitude.

Mathematically, ρ = M/V

ρ denotes densityM denotes massV denotes volume

By substituting the values, we get

⭆ 3 = M/20

⭆ M = 3 × 20

M = 60 g

∴ Mass of the object is 60g.

Answer:

a

[tex]P_1 =  0.1333[/tex] , [tex]P_2 =  0.266[/tex], tex]P_3 =  0.200[/tex],  [tex]P_4 =  0.333[/tex] ,   [tex]P_5 =  0.067[/tex]

b

The location with most risk for flood is the location with 5 towns

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The total number of town is n = 15

Generally the missing number of town is mathematically evaluated as

[tex]k = 15 - [2 + 4 + 5 + 1 ][/tex]

=> [tex]k = 3 [/tex]

Generally the probability distribution for frequency is mathematically represented as

[tex]P = \frac{A}{B}[/tex]

Here  A is the number of town having these losses (i.e each row under the number of towns having the losses column)

        B is the total number of  towns

Considering column one

          [tex]P_1 =  \frac{2}{15}[/tex]

           [tex]P_1 =  0.1333[/tex]

Considering column two

          [tex]P_2 =  \frac{4}{15}[/tex]

           [tex]P_2 =  0.266[/tex]

Considering column three

          [tex]P_3 =  \frac{3}{15}[/tex]

           [tex]P_3 =  0.200[/tex]

Considering column four

          [tex]P_4 =  \frac{5}{15}[/tex]

           [tex]P_4 =  0.333[/tex]

Considering column five

          [tex]P_5 =  \frac{1}{15}[/tex]

           [tex]P_5 =  0.067[/tex]

Looking at the table we see that the region with  5  towns receive 3 floods per town and this region of 5 towns has a higher probability distribution for frequency compared to the other region. hence the location with most risk for flood is the location with 5 towns


Using the diagram, determine whether the angles are vertical angles, a linear pair, or neither. (Image is included)

Answers

Answer:

1.linear pair

2. neither

3. vertical

4. neither

5. vertical

6. neither

7. linear pair

8. neither

Step-by-step explanation:

the answers are starting from up to down, not side to side

We have the definitions of the Adjacent angles, linear angles, vertical angles.

Two angles are considered to be adjacent angles when they share a common vertex, a common side, but no common interior pointsWhen two lines intersect each other at a single point, linear pair of angles are formed. If the angles so formed are adjacent to each other after the intersection of the two lines, the angles are said to be linear.Two angles are said to be vertical angles when their sides form two pairs of opposite rays (straight lines).

So, from the figure we see that

<1 and <2 are linear pair  <2 and <4 are neither <6 and <8 are vertical <11 and <1 are neither<1 and <3 are vertical <4 and <5 are neither <8 and <9 are linear pair <10 and <7 are neither

Three hundred yards of fencing is being used to fence in a rectangular garden. The area of the garden is modeled by a

A(w), represent?
the minimum width that can be used for the fencing
the maximum area that can be enclosed by the fencing
the width that gives the maximum area
the length that gives the maximum area

Answers

Answer:

Opction b)

The maximum area that can be enclosed by the fencing

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test

The solution is, A(w), represents the maximum area that can be enclosed by the fencing.

Here, we have,

If the width of the garden is w (in yards), then the length of the garden is (150-w) and the area is ...

 A(w) = w(150 -w) = -(w² -150w)

 A(w) = -(w² -150w +75²) +75²

 A(w) = -(w -75)² +5625

In this vertex form, the vertex is (75, 5625).

The graph of area versus width is a parabola that opens downward, so the vertex second coordinate is the maximum area that can be enclosed.

To find distance dealing with time and speed, we can use the formula d=rt.

D= Distance

R= Speed
