The bears football team lost 7 yards and then gained 12 yards. what is the result of the two plays

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The result of the two plays is that the bears gained 5 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can denote the lost values as negative and won value as positive.

Given is - the bears football team lost 7 yards and then gained 12 yards.

If we take the initial start point to be zero, we can calculate the resultant.

0-7+12=+5

Or we can calculate simply :

-7+12=+5

Hence, the result of the two plays is that the bears gained 5 yards.

Answer 2
Answer: Start at 0 and go back 7 yards for their loss.  You are not at -7 on the number line.
Move 12 to the right because of the gain.   It takes 7 or those 12 just to get back to zero and you can still move 5 more to the right.   You will wind up with a gain of 5 yards.  (+5)

A store is selling lemons at 2 for $3. Each lemon yields 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. How much will it cost to buy enough lemons to make a 9-inch lemon pie requiring 1/2 cup of lemon juice?

Answers

Answer:

It will cost $6 to buy enough lemons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

To make a 9-inch lemon pie requiring 1/2 cup of lemon juice.

1 cup = 16 tablespoons

1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons

That means we only need 8 tablespoons.

Each lemon yields 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.

Number of lemon required =8 ÷ 2 = 4

That means we need only 4 lemon.

Store is selling lemons at 2 for $3 that means 4 lemons for $6.

Hence, it will cost $6 to buy enough lemons.

Answer:

6 dollars to buy enough lemons

Given: x - 5 > -10. Choose the solution set.

{x | x R, x < -15}
{x | x R, x > -5}
{x | x R, x < 5}
{x | x R, x > 15}

Answers

Answer:

B.\{x|x\text{ R},x>-5\}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an inequality. We are asked to choose the solution set for our given inequality.

x-5>-10

First of all, we will separate variable x on one side on inequality as:

x-5+5>-10+5

x>-5

Therefore, the solution for our given inequality are all values of x greater than -5 and option B is the correct choice.

It is the second one.Caus -10 +5 when it is brought to the other side.Thus x>-5

An angle is formed by the junction of two rays.
a. True
b. False

Answers

The most probable and most likely answer to this problem of true or false would be true.

An angle is formed by the junction of two rays. Usually, when two rays are in junction, two angles are formed. Either the formed angle is an acute angle, obtuse angle, or a right angle. The other angle that comes with the formed angle mentioned earlier would be a reflex angle. When two rays form just a line, the angle formed would be just one which is a complete rotation, thus the angle would be a 360 angle.
