What is negative 4 minus negative 2?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: -4 - (-2) = -4 + 2 = 2 - 4 = -2

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of the verbal expression is -2.

Given that a verbalexpression negative 4 minus negative 2, we need to solve this,

To subtract a negative number, you can rewrite it as adding the opposite. Therefore, "negative 4 minus negative 2" can be rewritten as "negative 4 plus positive 2."

When you add a negative number and a positive number, you can simply combine them by their absolute values and use the sign of the larger number. In this case, the absolute values of 4 and 2 are the same, so the result will have the same sign as the larger number, which is negative.

Therefore, "negative 4 plus positive 2" equals -2.

So, negative 4 minus negative 2 is equal to -2.

Step-by-step explanation: Two of the numbers are both negative you’re going to want to add those together first. -17 + (-3) = -20. What’s left is -20 + 20 when you add a positive (20) with a negative (-20) you’re going to need to ‘subtract’ so sort of like this : 20 - 20 and that equals 0

Steve has overdrawn his checking account by $27. His bank charged him $15 for an overdraft fee. Then he quickly deposited $100. What is his current balance?

Answers

So... that's.... U-27... which apparently is negative 15.... so now all I have to do is subtract 15 from 100.... so.... Steve's current balance is now $85.
lol as soon as I typed "Steve", I thought of Markiplier's pet named Steve

Compare rates of change.A. The equation below can be used to find the length of a foot or forearm when you know one or the other.

(length of the foot) = 0.860 • (length of the forearm) + 3.302

If you let y = length of the foot and x = length of the forearm, this equation can be simplified to
y = 0.860x + 3.302.

Using this equation, how long would the foot of a person be if his forearm was 17 inches long?

B. What is the rate of change of the equation from Part A?

Compare the equation from Part A to your data. Are they the same? Which has a greater rate of change? Why do you think the values are different?

C. Is the relation in your data a function? Why or why not? Could the equation in Part A represent a function? Why or why not? Explain your answer.

Answers

y=foot
x=foram

A. easy, plug 17 for x and evaluage for y
y=0.860(17)+3.302
y=14.62+3.302
y=17.922 inches

B. rate of change is slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
so
rate or change is 0.860 inches per legnth of forarm

C. what data

D. it is a function
since it is 1st degree (no exponents greater than 1 on the placeholder), and it is not a vertical line
it is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

y=0.860x + 3.302

y= 0.860(17) + 3.302

y= 14.62 + 3.302

y= 17.922

Part B:

step 1

y=0.860x + 3.302

y= 0.860(17) + 3.302

y= 14.62 + 3.302

y= 17.922

step 2

y=0.860x + 3.302

y= 0.860(18) + 3.302

y= 15.48 + 3.302

y= 18.782

step 3

18.782-17.922=.86

So, the rate of change is .86

Neil had some olive oil. He used 1/5 liter to make a salad dressing. There was 1/2 liter of olive oil remaining in the bottle. What amount of olive oil did Neil have in the bottle before using some for the salad dressing and the steps to calculate it?

Answers

First you have to put the fractions in the same denominator. 1/5 and 1/2, times the denominators together and get 10. To get 5 to 10 you have to times by 2 so you do the same to the top (2/10) and to get 2 to 10 you times by 5 (5/10). So to start he had 7/10 of olive oil.

1/5 + 1/2. Make sure the under number are same. Become 2/10 + 5/10 = 7/10

Martin has 15 texts messages on his phone .Two thirds of them are from his sister how many texts does martin have from his sister? I need three different ways to calculate this answer?

Answers

15/3=5. 5x2=10. 2/3=66.66%. 10%=1.5 5%=0.75 1%=0.15 0.66 rounds to 1 1.5x6=9. 9+0.76+1.5+1.5=10. 2:3=10:15.

Divide 15 by 3 and add that number to itself

Multiply 15 by (2/3) (don't forget parentheses if you are using a calculator)
