The number closest to 0 is the number whose absolute difference from 0 is the smallest

0.5 is the closest number to 0

<h3>How to determine the closest to 0</h3>

The numbers are given as:

–4, 3, 0. 5, 1

Calculate their absolute difference with 0

|-4 - 0| = 4

|3 - 0| = 3

|0.5 - 0| = 0.5

|1 - 0| = 1

The smallest absolute difference is 0.5

Hence, 0.5 is the closest number to 0

Jose and Sue are playing a board game. If they land on a red or blue square, they lose 1 point. The inequality statement compare

Nina [5.8K]

The inequality statement shows that both Jose and Sue landed on red or blue squares and hence both lost some points. The points they lost were more than the points they gained, which resulted in an overall score having a negative value for each player.

Jose had a final score of -2 and Sue had a final score of -5. This means, Sue scored less and probably lost more points as compared to Jose. There is a difference of 3 points between the scores of both players.

Distance Formula: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point C (-2, 0)

Point D (3, 5)

Step 2: Find distance d

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d

Substitute in points [Distance Formula]: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(3+2)^2+(5-0)^2}$
[√Radical] (Parenthesis) Add/Subtract: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(5)^2+(5)^2}$
[√Radical] Evaluate exponents: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{25+25}$
[√Radical] Add: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{50}$
[√Radical] Simplify: $\displaystyle d = 5\sqrt{2}$
[√Radical] Evaluate: $\displaystyle d = 7.07107$
Round: $\displaystyle d \approx 7.07$
