A number line is just that – a straight, horizontal line with numbers placed at even increments. The distance from the origin to a is |a| for any real number a. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>What is a number line?</h3>

A number line is just that – a straight, horizontal line with numbers placed at even increments along the length. It’s not a ruler, so the space between each number doesn’t matter, but the numbers included on the line determine how it’s meant to be used.

As we know that in the given function |a|, when any value is given to a, then the value that the function is written is equal to a.

Let a=-5, then the value that the function will return is 5. Which is the distance borigin and a, on the number line.

Hence, The distance from the origin to a is |a| for any real number a. Thus, the correct option is C.

These two scalene triangles are similar with a scale of 4:5. What is true about these figures?
disa [49]

Alright, lets get started.

Lets check each possible answer one by one.

We will start from option B.

BC is from small triangle and its corresponding side is DF, so its ratio will be \frac{4}{5} not \frac{5}{4} as given in option. Hence option B is incorrect.

For option C,

Angle a° and angle f° are not similar angles, if they were similar, then only their ratio will be 1 otherwise not 1. Hence option C is incorrect.

For option D,

Angle c° and angle f° are similar angles so, their ratio will be \frac{c}{f}  = 1. Hence option D is incorrect.

Now option A,

ED and AB are corresponding sides. ED is from bigger triangle and AB is from smaller triangle. Their ratio will be \frac{ED}{AB} =  \frac{5}{4}. Hence option A is correct answer.

Hope it will help :)

Paul went on a bike ride of 30 miles. He realized that if he had gone 8 mph faster, he would have arrived 12 hours sooner. How f
lara [203]

Answer: He actually rode 2 miles per hour on his trip

Step-by-step explanation: Maybe unconventional, but express the time it took, then figure the speed.

Time  = distance /speed  t will represent time, s is the speed:  t = 30/s Use the rime it would have taken at the higher speed to create an equation:

t-12 = 30/s+8   replace the y with the 30/s

30/s -12 = 30/s+8

(s)(30/s -12 ) = (s)(30/s+8 )  Cross multiply to cancel denominators  

(s-8)(30 -12s) = (s-8)(30s/s+8 ) ==> 30s +240 -12s² -96s =30s   Simplify:  

(-1)(-12s² -96s +240 ) =0 ==>  12s² +96s -240  divide all by 12

s² + 8s -20 = 0   Factor and solve for s

(s +10)(s -2) =0    s-2=0   S= 2  

Proof:

30/2 = 15 hours for original trip at 2mph,  

increase speed by 8mph   2 + 8 = 10mph

30 miles at 10mph takes 3 hours; that is 12 hours less than his actual trip.

(Brainilest, please :-)
