Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers. A positive times a positive is a positive, right? But a negative times a negative is also a positive. Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number. So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.
Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives. Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147. What other factors of -147 are there?
What about 7? Try it: -147 / 7 = -21. So here are two factors: -21, and 7. They multiply to -147. Do they add up to -14? Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14. Yup, that works!
Answer: -21 and 7
Answer:
<em>Yellow troop will complete the hike faster than blue troop</em>
<u>Blue troop hikes 1.33 miles in 1 hour</u>
<u>Yellow troop hikes 2.25 miles in 1 hour</u>
Missing portion:
Since the final statement is missing, so we will find how much distance can the troops travels in 1 hour and which troop can complete the hike faster.
Step-by-step explanation:
As given in the statement:
Blue troops travels miles ever hour:
hr = miles
1 hr =
1 hr= miles = 1.33 miles
Blue troop hikes 1.33 miles in 1 hour
Yellow troops travels miles ever hour:
hr= miles
1 hr = miles
1 hr = miles =2.25 miles
Yellow troop hikes 2.25 miles in 1 hour
<u><em>Yellow troop will complete the hike faster than blue troop</em></u>
The answer is 19.5
You add all the numbers to get 273 and divide by the amount of dots which is 14 to get 19.5
