Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive. So 2-(-8) is really 2+8 = 10.
With something like 2-8, we start at 2 and move to the left 8 units to arrive at -6 on the number line. When we do 2-(-8), we start at 2 and move 8 units in the opposite direction since -8 is the opposite of 8.
In terms of money, you can think of a negative number as an IOU or it represents the amount of debt. Writing -8 means you are 8 dollars in debt. If we subtract away debt, then we have less of it and effectively its the same as adding dollars to your pocket. Subtracting away 8 dollars of debt is the same as adding 8 dollars to your pocket, which is one interpretation of how 2-(-8) is the same as 2+8.

Select the function that represents a parabola with zeros at x = –2 and x = 4, and y-intercept (0,–16). A ƒ(x) = x2 + 2x – 8 B ƒ(x) = 2x2 + 4x – 16 C ƒ(x) = x2 – 2x – 8 D ƒ(x) = 2x2 – 4x – 16
Answer:
D. [tex]f(x) = 2\cdot x^{2}-4\cdot x -16[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Any parabola is modelled by a second-order polynomial, whose standard form is:
[tex]y = a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c[/tex]
Where:
[tex]x[/tex] - Independent variable, dimensionless.
[tex]y[/tex] - Dependent variable, dimensionless.
[tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex], [tex]c[/tex] - Coefficients, dimensionless.
In addition, a system of three linear equations is constructed by using all known inputs:
(-2, 0)
[tex]4\cdot a -2\cdot b + c = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1)
(4, 0)
[tex]16\cdot a + 4\cdot b +c = 0[/tex] (Eq. 2)
(0,-16)
[tex]c = -16[/tex] (Eq. 3)
Then,
[tex]4\cdot a - 2\cdot b = 16[/tex] (Eq. 4)
[tex]16\cdot a + 4\cdot b = 16[/tex] (Eq. 5)
(Eq. 3 in Eqs. 1 - 2)
[tex]a - 0.5\cdot b = 4[/tex] By Eq. 4 (Eq. 4b)
[tex]a = 4 + 0.5\cdot b[/tex]
Then,
[tex]16\cdot (4+0.5\cdot b) + 4\cdot b = 16[/tex] (Eq. 4b in Eq. 5)
[tex]64 + 12\cdot b = 16[/tex]
[tex]12\cdot b = -48[/tex]
[tex]b = -4[/tex]
The remaining coeffcient is:
[tex]a = 4 + 0.5\cdot b[/tex]
[tex]a = 4 + 0.5\cdot (-4)[/tex]
[tex]a = 2[/tex]
The function that represents a parabola with zeroes at x = -2 and x = 4 and y-intercept (0,16) is [tex]f(x) = 2\cdot x^{2}-4\cdot x -16[/tex]. Thus, the right answer is D.

A study of 200 computer service firms revealed these incomes after taxes: Income After Taxes Number of Firms Under $1 million 102 $1 million up to $20 million 61 $20 million or more 37 What is the probability that a particular firm selected has $1 million or more in income after taxes
Answer:
The probability that a particular firm selected has $1 million or more in income after taxes is 49%.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a study of 200 computer service firms revealed these incomes after taxes below;
Income After Taxes Number of Firms
Under $1 million 102
$1 million up to $20 million 61
$20 million or more 37
Total 200
Now, the probability that a particular firm selected has $1 million or more in income after taxes is given by;
Total number of firms = 102 + 61 + 37 = 200
Number of firms having $1 million or more in income after taxes = 61 + 37 = 98 {here under $1 million data is not include}
So, the required probability = [tex]\frac{\text{Firms with \$1 million or more in income after taxes}}{\text{Total number of firms}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{98}{200}[/tex]
= 0.49 or 49%
The probability that a particular firm selected has $1 million or more in income after taxes is 0.49 or 49%.
What is probability?Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1. Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.
A study of 200 computer service firms revealed these incomes after taxes:
Income After Taxes Number of Firms Under
$1 million 102
$1 million up to $20 million 61
$20 million or more 37.
Then the total event will be
Total event = 102 + 37 +61 = 200
The probability that a particular firm selected has $1 million or more in income after taxes will be
Favorable event = 37 + 61 = 98
Then the probability will be

Combine like terms. What is a simpler form of each expression? 4c-4d+8c-3d
Answer:
12c-7d
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]4c-4d+8c-3d=0\\4c+8c=3d+4d\\12c=7d\\12c-7d[/tex]
===============================================
Explanation:
The terms 4c and 8c are one pair of like terms that combine to 4c+8c = 12c. We add 4 and 8 to get 12, then tack a 'c' at the end
The other pair of like terms are -4d and -3d. They combine to -7d for similar reasoning.
12c and -7d are not like terms, so we can't combine them and we stop here.
-----------
One way to think of combining like terms is consider simplifying 2c+3c. You could say that 2c represents having 2 cups while 3c is having 3 cups. Writing 2c+3c means we start with 2 cups and add on 3 more getting a total of 2+3 = 5 cups. Symbolically we would then write 5c. Therefore 2c+3c = 5c.

Correct options are 2, 5 and 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the given vertices of triangle are A(-3,-3), B(-3,2) and C(1,2).
Distance formula:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Using distance formula, we get
[tex]AB=\sqrt{(-3-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB=\sqrt{(0)^2+(5)^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB=\sqrt{25}[/tex]
[tex]AB=5[/tex]
Similarly,
[tex]BC=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(2-2)^2}=4[/tex]
[tex]AC=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{16+25}=\sqrt{41}[/tex]
From the above calculation it is clear that AC>AB and AC>BC.
According to Pythagoras theorem, in a right angle triangle, the square of largest side is equal to the sum of squares of two small sides.
[tex]hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2[/tex]
[tex]AC^2=(\sqrt{41})^2=41[/tex]
[tex]AB^2+BC^2=(5)^2+4^2=24+16=41=AC^2[/tex]
So, given triangle is a right angle triangle and AC is its hypotenuse.
Therefore, the correct options are 2, 5 and 7.

The chart shows a certain city's population by age. Assume that the selections are independent events. If 8 residents of this city are selected at random, find the probability that the first 2 are 65 or older, the next 3 are 25-44 years old, the next 2 are 24 or younger, and the last is 45-64 years old.
Answer:
0.000014
Step-by-step explanation:
The chart is not provided so i will use an example chart to explain the answer. Here is a sample chart:
City X's Population by Age
0-24 years old 33%
25-44 years old 22%
45-64 years old 21%
65 or older 24%
In order to find probability of independent events we find the probability of each event occurring separately and then multiply the calculated probabilities together in the following way:
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)
probability that the first 2 are 65 or older
Let A be the event that the first 2 are 65 or older
The probability of 65 or older 24% i.e. 0.24
So the probability that first 2 are 65 or older is:
0.24(select resident 1) * 0.24(select resident 2)
P(A) = 0.24 * 0.24
= 0.0576
P(A) = 0.0576
probability that the next 3 are 25-44 years old
Let B be the event that the next 3 are 25-44 years old
25-44 years old 22% i.e. 0.22
So the probability that the next 3 are 25-44 years old is:
0.22 * 0.22* 0.22
P(B) = 0.22 * 0.22 * 0.22
= 0.010648
P(B) = 0.010648
probability that next 2 are 24 or younger
Let C be the event that the next 2 are 24 or younger
0-24 years old 33% i.e. 0.33
So the probability that the next 2 are 24 or younger is:
0.33 * 0.33
P(C) = 0.33 * 0.33
= 0.1089
P(C) = 0.1089
probability that last is 45-64 years old
Let D be the event that last is 45-64 years old
45-64 years old 21% i.e. 0.21
So the probability that last is 45-64 years old is:
0.21
P(D) = 0.21
So probability of these independent events is computed as:
P(A and B and C and D) = P(A) * P(B) * P(C) * P(C)
= 0.0576 * 0.010648 * 0.1089 * 0.21
= 0.000014

Megan has 12 pounds of cheesecake. On Monday, she and her friends eat 4 pounds. On Tuesday, she and her friends eat another 3 pounds. On Wednesday, her friend Mark gives her some more cheesecake so that she has 3 times as much as she had at the end of Tuesday. On Thursday, some of her cheesecake goes bad, so she has the amount that she had at the end of Wednesday, but divided by 5. On Friday, she gives 3 pounds to her dog. On Saturday, her mom gives her one more pound. On Sunday, how many pounds of cheesecake does Megan have left?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First we start with 12 pounds
On Monday, she and her friends eat 4 pounds. So we have 8 now.
On Tuesday, she and her friends eat another 3 pounds. So we gave 5 now.
On Wednesday, her friend Mark gives her some more cheesecake so that she has 3 times as much as she had at the end of Tuesday. 5 * 3 = 15
On Thursday, some of her cheesecake goes bad, so she has the amount that she had at the end of Wednesday, but divided by 5. She had 15 at the end of Wednesday. 15/5 = 3.
On Friday, she gives 3 pounds to her dog. 5 - 3 = 2.
On Saturday, her mom gives her one more pound. 2 + 1 = 3.
On Sunday, she finally has 3 pounds.

Sherina wrote and solved the equation. x minus 56 = 230. x minus 56 minus 56 = 230 minus 56. x = 174. What was Sherina’s error?
Answer:
subtracting 56 instead of adding (or adding wrong)
Step-by-step explanation:
She wrote ...
x - 56 = 230
x - 56 - 56 = 230 -56 . . . . correct application of the addition property*
x = 230 -56 . . . . . . . . . . . . incorrect simplification
Correctly done, the third line would be ...
x -112 = 174
This would have made Sherina realize that the error was in subtracting 56 instead of adding it. The correct solution would be ...
x - 56 + 56 = 230 + 56 . . . using the addition property of equality
x = 286 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . correct simplification on both sides
__
There were two errors:
1) incorrect strategy --- subtracting 56 instead of adding
2) incorrect simplification --- simplifying -56 -56 to zero instead of -112
We don't know whether you want to count the error in thinking as the first error, or the error in execution where the mechanics of addition were incorrectly done.
_____
* The addition property of equality requires the same number be added to both sides of the equation. Sherina did that correctly. However, the number chosen to be added was the opposite of the number that would usefully work toward a solution.
Answer:
D: Sherina should have added 56 to both sides of the equation.

Find the maximum and minimum values of the function f(x,y)=2x2+3y2−4x−5 on the domain x2+y2≤100. The maximum value of f(x,y) is:
First find the critical points of f :
[tex]f(x,y)=2x^2+3y^2-4x-5=2(x-1)^2+3y^2-7[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2(x-1)=0\implies x=1[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=6y=0\implies y=0[/tex]
so the point (1, 0) is the only critical point, at which we have
[tex]f(1,0)=-7[/tex]
Next check for critical points along the boundary, which can be found by converting to polar coordinates:
[tex]f(x,y)=f(10\cos t,10\sin t)=g(t)=295-40\cos t-100\cos^2t[/tex]
Find the critical points of g :
[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dt}=40\sin t+200\sin t\cos t=40\sin t(1+5\cos t)=0[/tex]
[tex]\implies\sin t=0\text{ OR }1+5\cos t=0[/tex]
[tex]\implies t=n\pi\text{ OR }t=\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)+2n\pi\text{ OR }t=-\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)+2n\pi[/tex]
where n is any integer. We get 4 critical points in the interval [0, 2π) at
[tex]t=0\implies f(10,0)=155[/tex]
[tex]t=\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)\implies f(-2,4\sqrt6)=299[/tex]
[tex]t=\pi\implies f(-10,0)=235[/tex]
[tex]t=2\pi-\cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac15\right)\implies f(-2,-4\sqrt6)=299[/tex]
So f has a minimum of -7 and a maximum of 299.

The answer is, (a) mean age is 48.
(b) standard deviation is 4.
What is a mean age?Average age of the population calculated as the arithmetic mean.Another parameter determining the average age of the population is the median age.What does standard deviation of age mean?In general, the standard deviation tells us how far from the average the rest of the numbers tend to be, and it will have the same units as the numbers themselves. If, for example, the group {0, 6, 8, 14} is the ages of a group of four brothers in years, the average is 7 years and the standard deviation is 5 years.How do you find the mean age?To find the mean add all the ages together and divide by the total number of children.

[tex]\pi[/tex] radian
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that angle for a full circle is 2[tex]\pi[/tex]
In the given figure shape is semicircle
hence,
angle for semicircle will be half of angle of full circle
thus, angle for given figure = half of angle for a full circle = 1/2 * 2[tex]\pi[/tex] = [tex]\pi[/tex]
Thus, answer is [tex]\pi[/tex] radian
alternatively, we also know that angle for a straight line is 180 degrees
and 180 degrees is same as [tex]\pi[/tex] radian.
Find the particular solution of the differential equation that satisfies the initial condition(s). (Remember to use absolute values where appropriate.) f ''(x) = 4 x2 , f '(1) = 2, f(1) = 5

[tex]f(1)=5\implies 5=\dfrac13\cdot1^4+C_1\cdot1+C_2\implies C_2=4[/tex]
so that the particular solution is
[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{x^4}3+\dfrac{2x}3+4[/tex]
If instead [tex]f''(x)=\frac4{x^2}[/tex], we have
[tex]f''(x)=\dfrac4{x^2}\implies f'(x)=-\dfrac4x+C_1\implies f(x)=-4\ln|x|+C_1x+C_2[/tex]
[tex]f'(1)=2\implies 2=-\dfrac41+C_1\implies C_1=6[/tex]
[tex]f(1)=5\implies 5=-4\ln|1|+C_1\cdot1+C_2\implies C_2=-1[/tex]
[tex]\implies f(x)=-4\ln|x|+6x-1[/tex]

Plz help me ASAP!! I’ll be so grateful!
Answer:
y > 1
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(7 + y) > -8(y + 1)
