This means that the number is positive. 

The absolute value is the distance away from 0 the number is.

So 1's absolute value would be 1, yet -5's absolute value would be 5.

So the number that's equal to its absolute value is positive, and the one that's not is negative.

So if you subtract 2 from the positive number, it must turn negative.

So 1 is a number that satisfies these conditions.

SORRY BUT CAN YOU HELP????!!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINS

Answer:

inequality equation: x<= -8

on the number line, there is a closed dot on -8, and is shaded left.

Step-by-step explanation:

so x/4 <= -2.

Multiply by 4

x<= -8.

Since it is a <=, the dot will be filled on negative 8, and shaded to the left, since it is a < sign.

Hope this helps!

How do you find out if 5/4 is greater or less than 7/4
castortr0y [4]

Answer: 7/4 is greater

Step-by-step explanation: If you divide 7 by 4 you get 1.75. Then you divide 5 by 4 and you get 1.25. 1.75 is greater than 1.25. Also, if they have the same denominator, whichever has a higher numerator would be greater.

So, you go to the y axis and find 40 meters on the graph. Then, you go across to find out that x (time in seconds) is 20 seconds. So, in 20 seconds Tom walks 40 meters.

Ralphie has a large tropical fish collection. He gives 2/3 of his fish to a local high school. Then he gives 2/5 of the remainin
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Let initially number of fishes =x

He gives 2/3 of his fish to a local high school, that is he gives 2x/3 fish .

So number of fishes left = x -(2x/3) = x/3 . And he gives 2/5 of x/3 to an elementary school , that is , he gives 2x/15 fishes to the elementary school. And finally the number of fishes left =30 , that is

x-(\frac{2x}{3}+\frac{2x}{15})=30

x-\frac{12x}{15}=30

\frac{3x}{15}=30

x = 150

So initially he have 150 fishes .
