Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 16| less than/equal to 4

Means x can be between;

-4+16 and 4+16, i.e [12,20]

|y - 6| less than/equal to 2

Means x can be between,

-2+6 and 2+6, i.e [4,8]

x - y would be greatest when x is greatest and y is least:

20 - 4 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of L = $5

Cost of S = $3

No. of drinks sold = 60 drinks

Solution:

L + S = 60 - (1) (multiplying by 3)

5L + 3S = 220 - (2)

(-)3L +(-) 3S = (-)180 - (1)

2L = 40

L = 40 / 2

L = 20 Large drinks

20 + S = 60

S = 60 - 20

S = 40 small drinks

Therefore, 20 large drinks and 40 small drinks

Over [174]

This is the transformations: See the picture, here we find the coordinate:

A' = (2,-3) and A''=(0.5,-2). There is many ways to get back to A from A'', i have showed one way (the red lines). This is done by going 5 units right and then 6 units up.

Marysya12 [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem is to find nearest number,

= 8888888/2915

quotient = 3049

remainder= 1053

Now, 2915-1053 = 1862

8888888+1862 = 8890750

8888888-1053 = 8887835

Two numbers nearest to 8888888 which are exactly divisible by 2915 is 8887835 and 8890750
