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.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angles are proportional to 3, 4, 5,Then the angle measures are 3x, 4X and 5X

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

45  60  75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the angles 3 x , 4 x and 5 x

They must add up to 180 o in a triangle, so:

3 x + 4 x + 5 x = 12 x = 180 → x = 180 / 12 = 15 So the angles are:

3 ⋅ 15 = 45 o 4 ⋅ 15 = 60 o 5 ⋅ 15 = 75 o Check answer:

45 + 60 + 75 = 180

Find the integer that lies between [tex]$\sqrt[3]{-45}$ and $\sqrt[3]{-101}$[/tex]

Answers

∛(-45) = ∛((-1) × 45) = ∛(-1) × ∛45 = -∛45

Similarly,

∛(-101) = - ∛101

Now,

• 3³ = 27 and 4³ = 64, and 27 < 46 < 64, so ∛27 < ∛45 < ∛64, which places ∛45 between 3 and 4

• 5³ = 125, so ∛101 would similarly fall between 4 and 5

So to summarize, we have

3 < ∛45 < 4 < ∛101 < 5

so that

-5 < ∛(-45) < -4 < ∛(-101) < -3

so the integer between these numbers is -4.

An absolute value graph looks like a V. If the number attached to the x is positive, then the graph opens upwards. If the number attached to the x is negative, then the graph opens downwards.

In this case, the graph opens downwards.

To find the vertex, look at the |x - 1| part of the equation. This tells us that x is shifted 1 to the right (opposite of the sign). And, the 3 outside of the absolute value bars tells us that the graph is also shifted up 3. Therefore, the vertex is (1, 3).

Next, we need to figure out how to graph it. That's where the -2 in front comes in. We know the graph faces downwards already. So, from the vertex, we will go down 2 spaces and left or right 1 depending on the side you are working on. Continue this pattern just like you would graphing the slope of a regular line, but this one is two sided.

If you need to view the graph for further help, I would recommend an online graphing calculator such as Desmos.

x² -23n +132 pls help​

Answers

Answer:

(x-11)(x-12)

Step-by-step explanation:

To clarify, there was a likely typo written in your question since it is impossible to solve two unknown values with only one equation. I'm supposing that the equation was supposed to be

[tex] {x}^{2} - 23x + 132[/tex]

The first step is to split the term into factorable terms.

Since the highest power is power of 2, the equation would look like this if factorized:

[tex](ax + b)(cx + d)[/tex]

If the terms were added properly, the expanded equation would be:

[tex](ac \times {x}^{2} ) +( (ad + bc) \times x) + (bd)[/tex]

Generally, we do not see decimal values or fractions in factorization with some exceptions. Otherwise, the equation could get very complicated.

In this case, we can determine the following:

[tex]a \times c = 1[/tex]

[tex](a \times d) + (b \times c) = - 23[/tex]

[tex]b \times d = 132[/tex]

First, we can determine a and c to be one since one only has one factor, which is itself.

This leaves us with two equations left

[tex]b + d = - 23[/tex]

[tex]b \times d = 132[/tex]

There are two ways to solve the remaining two terms. We can either find the factors or do quadratic equation. Finding the factors is the easier way out here.

b and d will add up to negative values but multiplying these values give positive values. The most likely reason is that b and d are negative values.

Now, we can find the factors of 132.

The factors are 1, 2, 3, 4 , 6, 11, 12, 22, 33, 44, 66 and 132. However, the values flip around.

In fact, the "factors" we are looking for are the negative values of the actual factors. To solve this, we should find two factors that add up to 23.

In this case, 11+12=23.

To verify, 11*12 is also 132.

Since we are looking for the negative values, the values we are looking for are -11 and -12.

The values can be plugged in anywhere in b or d.

After cleaning up, we can plug in the values into our factorization and we will get:

[tex](1x - 11)(1x - 12)[/tex]

or

[tex](x - 11)(x - 12)[/tex]

answer : (x-11) (x-12)

which relation is a function?

Answers

the first one because there is only one y value for every x value. you can also use the vertical line test in which you draw vertical lines and make sure the function only passes through it once at each point

The first one because there is only one y value for every x value. The correct option is first.

To determine if a relation is a function, use the vertical line test: If any vertical line intersects the graph of the relation at more than one point, then the relation is not a function. On the other hand, if every vertical line intersects the graph of the relation at most once, then the relation is a function.

In first relation is considered a function, because each input x-value is associated with exactly one output y-value. In other words, for every x-value in the domain of the relation, there can be only one corresponding y-value in the range. Each x-value should not have more than one y-value associated with it.

Therefore, each x-value should not have more than one y-value associated with it. The correct option is first.

b. 113% of $55

To find:

The correct values for the given blanks.

Solution:

a. 35% of 150 g

Here, the percent part is 35% and percent whole is 100%.

35% of 150 g is:

[tex]\dfrac{35}{100}\times 150=52.5[/tex]

So, the number part is 52.5 g and the whole number is 150 g.

Therefore, the percent part is 35%, number part is 52.5 g and the whole number is 150 g.

b. 113% of $55 g

Here, the percent part is 113% and percent whole is 100%.

113% of $55 is:

[tex]\dfrac{113}{100}\times 55=62.15[/tex]

So, the number part is $62.15 and the whole number is $55.

Therefore, the percent part is 113%, number part is $62.15 and the whole number is $55.

4. Andrés desea embaldosar el piso de su casa que tiene 375 cm de ancho y 435 cm de largo. Calcula la longitud del lado que tendrían las baldosas. ¿Cuántas baldosas colocaría en total?

Answers

Answer:

Sabemos que el piso es un rectángulo de 435 cm de largo y 375 cm de ancho.

Recordar que para un rectángulo de largo L, y ancho W, el área es:

A = L*W

Entonces el área del piso, será:

A = 435cm*375cm = 163,125 cm^2

Primero, sabemos que se utilizaran baldosas (las cuales son cuadradas) y queremos saber la longitud de lado que tendrían las baldosas.

No tenemos ningún criterio para encontrar este lado, solo que (si queremos usar un número entero de baldosas) el largo L del lado de la baldosa deberá ser un divisor de tanto el ancho como el largo del suelo.

Dicho de otra forma

el largo, 435cm, tiene que ser múltiplo de L

el ancho, 375cm, tiene que ser múltiplo de L.

Por ejemplo, ambos números son múltiplos de 5, entonces podríamos tomar L = 5cm

En este caso, el área de cada baldosa es:

a = L^2 = 5cm*5cm = 25cm^2

Y el número total de baldosas que necesitaría usar esta dado por el cociente entre el área del suelo y el area de cada baldosa.

N = ( 163,125 cm^2)/(25cm^2) = 6,525 baldosas.

También sabemos que ambos números (435cm y 375cm) son múltiplos de 15cm

Entonces las baldosas podrían tener 15cm de lado.

En este caso, el área de cada baldosa es:

A = (15cm)^2 = 225cm

En este caso el número total de baldosas necesarias será:

N =  ( 163,125 cm^2)/(225cm^2) = 725 baldosas.
