explain the difference in meaning between |-3| and -3

Answers

Answer 1
| -3 | and -3

the absolute value of a number is just how many spaces that number is from 0. So it is not negative because distance is not measured in negative values.. The absolute value of a number is positive. So |-3| = 3.

-3 just equals -3.

so the difference, I guess, is that -3 is negative but the absolute value of -3 is positive

Answer 2

The number is positive when measured in absolute value. So |-3| = 3. since distance cannot be calculated in negative quantities.

What is the number?

A number is a mathematical entity that can be used to count, measure, or name things. For example, 1, 2, 56, etc. are the numbers.

It is given that:

Two numbers are given:

|-3| and -3

As we know, the mod function has positive range.

Let f(x) = |x|

The range of the function is [0, ∞)

The value of |-3| will be 3 after removing the mod which is also called the absolute value of the mod function.

A number's distance from zero, or its absolute value, is expressed as the number of spaces.

Since distance cannot be calculated in negative quantities, it cannot be negative. A number is positive when measured in absolute value. So |-3| = 3.

Thus, the number is positive when measured in absolute value. So |-3| = 3. since distance cannot be calculated in negative quantities.

Answers

$12.86 all you need to do is add all the individual prices. 

The total amount of money spent by Danny is [tex]\fbox{\$12.86}[/tex].

Further explanation:

Given:

Danny spends $5.87 on a photo, $2.49 for balloon and $4.50 on strawberries.

Calculation:

Consider the total money spent as [tex]S[/tex], money spends on photo as [tex]x[/tex], money spends on balloons as [tex]y[/tex] and money spend on strawberries as [tex]z[/tex].

Total money spent [tex]S[/tex] is written as the sum of the money spent on photo [tex]x[/tex], balloons [tex]y[/tex] and strawberries [tex]z[/tex] as follows:

[tex]S=x+y+z[/tex]                                                                        …… (1)

Substitute, 5.87 for [tex]x[/tex], 2.49 for [tex]y[/tex] and 4.50 for [tex]z[/tex] in equation (1) to obtain the total money spent by Danny as follows:

[tex]\begin{aligned}S&=5.87+2.49+4.50\\&=8.36+4.50\\&=12.86\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the total amount of money spent by Danny is [tex]\fbox{\$12.86}[/tex].

Find the equation of the line (3,-2) and parralel to the line containing the points (-2,4) and (-4,-2).

Answers

Since the slope of a line is (change in y)/(change in x), we can plug (-2, 4) and (-4, -2) in to get (-2-(-4))/(4-(-2))=(-2+4)/(4+2)=2/6=1/3, making our equation 
y=(1/3)x+b from y=mx+b. Plugging (3, -2) in from there, we get -2=(1/3)*3+b=1+b. Subtracting 1 from both sides, we get b=-3, making our equation y=(1/3)x-3 due to that y and x stay variables


A rectangle has a perimeter of 16 inches.

What dimensions (length, width) could be the dimensions of the sides?

A. (8, 0)
B. (2, 12)
C. (6, 2)
D. (13, 3)
E. (3, 10)

Answers

C, (6,2) 6x2=12 2x2=4 12+4=16

option C: (6, 2).

The student has asked for the possible dimensions of a rectangle given that its perimeter is 16 inches. To find the dimensions that are correct, we need to remember that the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by the formula P = 2l + 2w, where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width. We must check each pair of dimensions provided and see if they satisfy this equation when the perimeter is 16 inches.

A. (8, 0) - This would give us a perimeter of 2(8) + 2(0) = 16 inches, which is correct, but it is not a possible dimension for a rectangle, as having a side of length 0 inches does not make a rectangle.B. (2, 12) - The perimeter here would be 2(2) + 2(12) = 28 inches, which is not equal to 16 inches.C. (6, 2) - Checking this option, we get 2(6) + 2(2) = 12 + 4 = 16 inches. This one is correct and is a possible dimension for a rectangle.D. (13, 3) - The perimeter in this case would be 2(13) + 2(3) = 26 + 6 = 32 inches, clearly more than 16 inches.E. (3, 10) - This would give us a perimeter of 2(3) + 2(10) = 6 + 20 = 26 inches, which also does not equal the 16-inch perimeter required.

Therefore, the only possible dimensions for the rectangle given the choices provided and where both dimensions are greater than zero is option C: (6, 2).

what is y=-3x+4 and y=3x-2

by using transitive property

Answers

Answer: -3x+4 = 3x-2 or 3x-2 = -3x+4
We can flip an equation to have it mean the same thing. Example: x = 5 is the same as 5 = x

The transitive property is the idea where if a = b and b = c, then a = c. Think of it as connecting a chain. Or taking a shortcut. If we know a leads to b, and b leads to c, then we can skip b all together and go from a directly to c. 

Same idea applies here: we have -3x+4 equal to y, and y also equal to 3x-2 so -3x+4 = 3x-2
y-(-3 times X)-4=0
y-(3 times X) + 2=0
3 times X+y-4=0\ -3 times X -4
y= -(3 times X-4
y=4-(3 times X)
2-( 3 times X)- (3 times X)+4=0
y=4-(3 times X)
6-6 times X =0 \-6
-6 times X= -6 \ : -6
X= -6\(-6) X=1
y=4 - (3 times 1)
y=4-3
The answer is y=1

Lorelle pays someone $35 to clear her driveway when it snows. She wants to buy an electric snow blower for $689 so that she can clear her own driveway. If the area Lorelle lives in has an average of 5.2 snowfalls each season, how many seasons will it take her to break even on what she spends for the snow blower?

Answers

Hello There!

The correct answer is 4.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

It would take 20 sessions to break even on what she spends for the snow blower.

The cost of the snow blower is $689, hence:

Cost = $689

Let x represent the number of sessions, Since $35 is paid to clear the driveway, hence:

Revenue = 35x

At breakeven:

Cost = Revenue

35x = 689

x = 20 (to nearest whole number)

Hence it would take 20 sessions to break even on what she spends for the snow blower.

Just by looking at it, we can see that y decreases by 2 for every x value, so it's

If Susan subtracts 11 from one-fourth of her number she gets 11

Answers

Final answer:

Susan's number is found by solving the equation x/4 - 11 = 11, which after isolating the variable and multiplying both sides by 4 yields the answer x = 88.

Explanation:

If Susan subtracts 11 from one-fourth of her number, she gets 11. To solve this problem, we set up an equation where x represents Susan's number. The one-fourth of her number would be x/4, and subtracting 11 from one-fourth of her number yields: x/4 - 11 = 11.

To find x, we first isolate the variable on one side by adding 11 to both sides of the equation, so we have x/4 = 22. Next, we multiply both sides by 4 to solve for x: x = 22 * 4. Therefore, Susan's number is 88.

number of different 5 digit combinations if successive digits msut be different

Answers

for the first digit you have 10 options (0..9).
For each next digit you can't choose the same digit, so you have 9 options.

So number of combinations is 10*9*9*9*9 = 65610

The permutations formula is applied to determine the number of different 5-digit combinations where successive digits must be different, resulting in a total of 30,240 combinations.

Permutations are used when the order of elements matters. In this case, the number of different 5-digit combinations where successive digits must be different can be calculated using the permutations formula.

Identify that we need to use permutations due to the order of elements being important.Calculate the number of possibilities for each digit decreasing by 1 with each selection. For a 5-digit number, it would be 10 choices for the first digit, 9 for the second, 8 for the third, 7 for the fourth, and 6 for the fifth.Calculate the total number of combinations by multiplying the number of choices for each digit together: 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 = 30,240.

This has really gotten confuzzing for me. SOS

Answers

For stock A, the equation is y=15.54+0.11x where x is the number of hours.
For stock B, the equation is y=16.04-0.09x where x is the number of hours.

We're trying to find when they will be equal.
15.54+0.11x=16.04-0.09x
1554+11x=1604-9x
1554+20x=1604
20x=50
x=2.5

Final answer: About 2.5 hours

let number of hours = x

1st equation is 15.54+0.11x

2nd equation is 16.14-0.09x

now calulate x so the 2 equations are equal:

15.54+0.11x=16.04-0.09x

mutiply evrything by 100 to get rid of the decimal points andmake the calculations a little easier


1554+11x=1604-9x

add 9 x to both sides:
1554+20x=1604

subtract 1554 from both sides:
20x=50

divide 50 by 20 for x
x=50/20 = 2.5

x = 2.5

 so they were the same after 2.5 hours
