Absolute value means that there is no negatives. You can use absolute value to measure distance. There is no "negative distance".

All you would do for this problem is take -282 and make it into an absolute value ( which is the same number but not a negative )

-282
=|282|
=282

Its really simple

Maddy has a bag of 36 marbles. The probability of picking green is 1 in 2, the probability of picking red is 1 in 3, and the pro
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:  1 in 18

This is the same as writing the fraction 1/18

==============================================================

Explanation:

Since she has 36 marbles total, and the probability of picking green is 1 in 2, this means (1/2)*36 = 18 marbles are green.

Then she also has (1/3)*36 = 12 red marbles and (1/9)*36 = 4 blue marbles.

So far, that accounts for 18+12+4 = 34 marbles in all. That leaves 36-4 = 2 marbles left over that must be black, as it's the only color left.

From that, the probability of choosing a black marble is 2/36 = 1/18.

There's a 1 in 18 chance of Maddy picking a black marble.

1/18 = 0.0556 = 5.56% approximately

let x represent Charity B then Charity A = 5x

Sum the two and equate to 378, that is

x + 5x = 378

6x = 378 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 63

Given that U is the centroid of triangle OPQ find PS.
o-na [289]

Answer:

PS=5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The centroid divides each median in the ratio 2:1

If U is the centroid, then

3.6:x+0.8=2:1

We use ratio to obtain;

\frac{3.6}{x+0.8}=\frac{2}{1}

Cross multiply;

3.6=2(x+0.8)

Expand;

3.6=2x+1.6

Group similar terms;

3.6-1.6=2x

2=2x

x=1

PS=PU+US

PS=3.6+1+0.8

PS=3.6+1+0.8

PS=5.4
