3. Emma said that when you multiply three negative decimals , the product will be positive . Use these numbers to answer the questions: -2.5,-3.8,-2.; .7, - 4.5

Part A: Is Emma's statement always true, sometimes true, or always false? Write two equations to support your answer.

Part B: Write a rule for multiplying three negative decimals .

Part C Emma changed her statement to say that when you multiply two negative decimals and a positive decimal the product will be positive Emma's new statement always true , sometimes true or always false ? Write two equations to support your answer

Answers

Answer 1

Using multiplication signal rules, it is found that:

A: Emma's statement is always false.

B: The result is always negative.

C: Emma's statement is always true.

The rule used for this exercise is as follows:

When two numbers of different signals are multiplied, the result is negative.When two numbers have the same signal, the result is positive.

Part A:

Three numbers are multiplied, all negative.The multiplication of the first two result in a positive number.Then, this positive number is multiplied by a negative number, and the result will be negative, which mean that Emma's statement is always false.

Two examples are:

[tex]-2.5(-3.8)(-2) = 9.5(-2) = -19[/tex]

[tex]-2.5(-2)(-0.7) = 5(-0.7) = -3.5[/tex]

Part B:

The rule is that the result is always negative.

Part C:

The multiplication of the first two negative numbers result in a positive number.Then, this positive number is multiplied by another positive number, and the result will be positive, which mean that Emma's statement is always true.

Two examples are:

[tex]-2.5(-3.8)(2) = 9.5(2) = 19[/tex]

[tex]-2.5(-2)(0.7) = 5(0.7) = 3.5[/tex]

a) White as it is the shortest bar (has the lowest height and only has 4 t-shirts sold)

b) According to the bar graph, 7 grey t-shirts were sold and 4 white t-shirts were sold. Subtracting 4 from 7 = 7-4 = 3

Hence, 3

c) At least 10 T-shirts sold, suggests that it was greater than or equal to 10. According to the graph, black has 12, tan has 11, and brown has 10. Hence,

The value of the function, for x=-2 is 4.

The given function is f(x)=2x+8.

What is the function?

Functions are the fundamental part of the calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input x.

When x=-2, we get

f(-2)=2(-2)+8

=4

When x=0, we get

f(0)=2(0)+8

= 8

When x=5, we get

f(5)=2(5)+8

= 18

Therefore, the value of the function, for x=-2 is 4.

You have at most $20 to spend at an arcade. Arcade games cost $0.75 each, and snacks cost $2.25 each. Write an inequality that represents the numbers of games (x )you can play and snacks( y) you can buy.
The inequality is ??

Answers

Answer:

y ≤ -1/3x+80/9

Step-by-step explanation:

(1). 0.75(x)+2.25(y) ≤ 20

0.75 - Number of arcade games (X).

2.25 - Number of snacks (Y).

20 - The total.

(2). 0.75x+2.25y≤20

(After multiplying the x's and y's together, with the numbers).  

(3). 0.75x (-0.75x) + 2.25y ≤ 20 (-0.75x)

(Subtract -0.75x to each side, which allows the equation to get closer to the answer).

(4). 2.25y       -0.75x + 20

   ————   =   ————

    2.25            2.25

C) 144
D) 72

Answers

D. There are 9 blouse options and 8 skirt options. So, for each of the 9 blouses, there are 8 skirt options. Multiply 9x8, which equals 72

What is permutation?

Permutation is a mathematical calculation of the number of ways a particular set can be arranged, where order of the arrangement matters.

Permutation Formula

[tex]^{n} P_{r} = \frac{P!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]

Where,

[tex]^{n}P_{r}[/tex] is permutation

n is the number of objects

r is the number of objects selected.

According to the given question.

Total number of blouses = 9

Total number of skirts = 8

So,

the number of ways of choosing one blouse from 8

=[tex]^{8} P_{1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{8!}{(8-1)!} \\[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{8!}{7!}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{8\times 7!}{7!}[/tex]

= [tex]8[/tex]

And the number of ways of choosing one skirt from 9

[tex]^{9} P_{1} \\= \frac{9!}{(9-1)!} \\= \frac{9\times 8!}{8!} \\=9[/tex]

Therefore,

The total number of ways of choosing two piece outfit from 9 blouses and 8 skirts

= [tex]^{8} P_{1} \times ^{9} P_{1}[/tex]

= [tex]8 \times 9[/tex]

[tex]= 72[/tex]

Hence, the total number of ways a girl can choose a two-piece outfit from 9 blouses and 8 skirts is 72.

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a 100-foot tower, with an initial velocity of 20 ft/sec. Its position function is s(t) = -16t^2 + 20t + 100. What is its velocity in ft/sec when t = 1 second?

Answers

The velocity of the ball in ft/sec, when t = 1 second is equal to -12 ft/sec.

Given the following data:

Displacement = 100 feetTime = 1 secondsPosition function = [tex]s(t) = -16t^2 + 20t + 100[/tex]

To calculate the velocity of the ball in ft/sec, when t = 1 second:

Mathematically, the velocity of an object or physical body is equal to the differentiation of it's position function.

Velocity = s'(t)

Velocity = [tex]s(t) = -16t^2 + 20t + 100[/tex]

[tex]Velocity = -32t + 20[/tex]

Substituting the value of time (t), we have:

[tex]Velocity = -32(1) +20\\\\Velocity =-32+20[/tex]

Velocity = -12 ft/sec
