Which of the following correctly uses absolute value to show the distance between -60 and 11? (5 points)

1 answer:

8 0

The correct answer for this question is this one: "|-60 - 11| = |-71| = 71 units"

The statement says that "the absolute value that show the distance between -60 and 11"

Absolute value is the distance of that specific number from zero in a straight number line. The selected answer is the correct one.

what algorithm (rule) will produce the correct result for the sum "a+b" where a and b each represent any rational number.

Leokris [45]

Answer:

To find the sum of a + b where a and b are rational number.

1. when a and b are natural numbers

just add them . for example a =3, b=8

then ,a + b = 11

2. When a and b are whole numbers,

simply add them . for example a= 0, b=8

a+ b = 0 + 8= 8

3. When a and b are integers

for example, a =-1 b=8,

a+ b= -1+ 8 =7,

a=-2, b= -8

a+ b= -2-8=-10

a= -6 , b=2

a+ b= -6 + 2= -4

a= 8, b= -2

a+ b= 8 +(-2) =6

I have written this because Rational number = [Integers{Whole number(Natural number)}]

now when a= Any fraction= $\frac{p}{q}$ and b = Any fraction= $\frac{u}{v}$

now ,

$\frac{p}{q} + \frac{u}{v}$

Find L.C.M of q and v

= if q and v are Co-prime , just multiply them to find their L.C.M.

For example 14,9. LCM=14×9=126

Otherwise, Find factors of q and v . Then take out common factors first and then multiply the remaining with with common factors.For example

q=12 and v=18

12 =2×2×3

18=2×3×3

common factor =2,3

non common=2,3

L.C.M= 2×2×3×3=36

Suppose LCM of q and v = r

then , $\frac{p}{q} + \frac{u}{v}$

= $\frac{{\frac{r}{q}}\times p+{\frac{r}{v}\times u}}{r}\\$

= ${{\frac{r}{q}}\times p+{\frac{r}{v}\times u}} = k$

then ,

a + b= $\frac{k}{r}$

Answer:

a. $\frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. $\textbf{3} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{+} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{4}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $a\frac{x}{y} = a + \frac{x}{y}$

$\therefore 3 + 1\frac{1}{4} = 3 + 1 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= 4 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= \frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\textbf{2} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{-} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{5}}{\textbf{8}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $-c\frac{a}{b} = - c - \frac{a}{b}$

$\therefore 2 - 1\frac{5}{8} = 2 - 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= \frac{8 - 5}{8}$

$= \frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Hence, the answer.
