Answer:

negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have positive integer x and negative integer -y.

Subtracting x from -y gives:

-y - x

Clearly, if -y is negative and we're subtracting even more (x) from it, the answer will still be negative.

So, the sign is negative.

You are setting up a zip line in your yard. You map out your yard in a coordinate plane. An equation of the line representing th
Pachacha [2.7K]
Solving this problem needs the distance formula of point to a line.

The formula is:

distance = | a x + b y + c | / √  (a^2 + b^2)

 
So we are given the equation: y = 2 x + 4

Rewriting this would be: y – 2 x – 4 = 0 ->  a = -2, b = 1, c = -4

 We are also given the points:

(-4, 11) = (x, y)

 Plugging it in the distance formula at points (x, y):

distance = | -2 * -4 + 1 * 11 + -4 | / √ [(- 2)^2 + (1)^2]

= 15 / √ (5)

= 6.7

 So the tree is approximately 6.7 feet away from the zip line.

Astrid is in charge of building a new fleet of ships. Each ship requires 40 tons of wood, and accommodates 300 sailors. She rece
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Astrid needs 280 tons of wood to build ships that can accommodate 2100 sailors

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, in this question, we want to know the amount of wood needed by Astrid to accommodate 2100 sailors.

From the question, we can see that 40 tons are needed to build a ship that can accommodate 300 sailors.

Now, we want to make a calculation for the amount of wood needed for 2100 sailors.

Let’s have it this way;

40 tons = 300 sailors

x tons = 2100 sailors

So mathematically,

x * 300 = 2100 * 40

x = (2100 * 40)/300

x = 280 tons of wood

We can see that 280 tons of wood are needed to build ships that can accommodate 2100 sailors
