Answer:

C. 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule postulate says that "the distance between two points is the absolute value of the difference of the corresponding numbers."

Let the two points be given:

P = 7

Q = 24

And let D be the distance between the two points.

So,

D = │P-Q│ = │7-24│ =│-17│ = 17

So, the correct answer is C. 17

Hope this helps!

Raul plans to run 30 miles this week. He wants to run the same number of miles each day of the week. He says he will run 7/30 mi
dmitriy555 [2]

What are the possible values of x for the following functions?
stiks02 [169]
What can a denominator never be?

0

so, we need to figure what x can't be... the only way to multiply 2 things together to get 0 is if one or both are zero.

so, what x values make our denominator 0?

to figure this out, we need to set (x-1)(x-2)=0

now we split and solve.

x - 1 = 0 \\ x - 2 = 0
so when x is 1 or 2 the function doesnt make sense.

but, x can be every other number and it does, so the answer is
