By definition, we have

So, we have to solve two different equations, depending of the possible range for the variable. We have to remember about these ranges when we decide to accept or discard the solutions:
Suppose that 
In this case, the absolute value doesn't do anything: the equation is

We are supposing
, so we can accept this solution.
Now, suppose that
. Now the sign of the expression is flipped by the absolute value, and the equation becomes

Again, the solution is coherent with the assumption, so we can accept this value as well.
Answer:
x+3y=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(x+3y)=18
x+3y=18/-2
x+3y=-9
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cube is given as:
Cube volume = length × length × length
Since the edges of the cube measure 3 inches, this means that the length of the cube is 3 inches, therefore:
Cube volume = 3 inches × 3 inches × 3 inches = 27 in³
The pine tree is the shape of a cone with diameter of 1.5 inches and a height (h) of 2 inches. The radius (r) = diameter / 2 = 1.5 inches / 2 = 0.75 inches.
The volume of the cone = πr²(h/3) = π × (0.75)² × (2/3) = 1.178 in³
The number of pine trees that can be made = Volume of cube / Volume of cone = 27 / 1.178 = 22.9
The number of pine trees = 22
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so the steps to doing this are as follows :
Subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.
Take the absolute value of step 1.
Divide that answer by the accepted value.
Multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.
|18.7-19.3|/19.3 = 0.031088 * 100% = 3.1%
Answer:
4.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, if we draw the point on the xy cartesian plane, we know that the value of "x" is 4.5 and the value of "y" is 0.
Which means that when I draw this in any way, the maximum value it will take is 4.5 units, therefore the radius should not exceed this value, nor should it be less than 4.5 units since the circle would be distorted.
Which means that the radius is 4.5 units
