Graph the absolute value by using the vertex and a few selected points
Point One: X= -1, Y= -8
Point Two: X= 0, Y= -2
Point Three: X= 1, Y= 4
Point Four: X= 2, Y= -2
Point Five: X= 3, Y= -8
The graph should look something like a mountain or an upside down V
Answer:
w = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
4+ 1/4 w=6
Subtract 4 from each side
4-4+ 1/4 w=6-4
1/4w = 2
Multiply each side by 4
4* 1/4 w=2*4
w = 8
Astronomers deal with objects in space, so it's most likely they would use geometry to determine how far they are, how big they are, etc.
Have a nice day! :)
