Hmmm... Strange very very strange. The bars around the w represent absolute value, and whatever is inside those bars always yields a positive answer. So, |-87| = 87 or |-8| = 8 or even |5|=5
Answer:
Penny would need to put in ~ $18,181.82
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the equation 
Where A = the total
P is equal to the starting amount
r is equal to the rate (percent)
and t is equal to the total time.
We can put in:
A = $40,000
r = 0.08 (8%)
t = 15

Round to the nearest whole cent
P = $18,181.82
1,655,000 maybe I not entirely sure sorry
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If 9 members paid on the first day, this means they did not pay on the third day
The remaining people (everyone but the 9) paid on the third day
Therefore we must subtract to find out how many members paid on the third day
22 - 9 = 13
Each of the 13 members paid $12.80 which means we must multiply
13 × 12.80 = 166.40
In total, the grocery store collected $166.40 on the third day of the month
we know the blue and white paints are on a 1.5 : 5 ratio, thus, if we have a total of 16.25 gallons of paint to be split along that ratio, we can simply divide 16.25 by (1.5+5) and distribute accordingly.
