Explain the difference between |-3| and -3?

Mathematics

They are opposites. since |-3| has the lines around it, this represents absolute value, which is not positive or negative but how far away the value is from 0. the plain -3 remains the same. |-3| is 3, because it is 3 units away from 0 on the number line.

Absolute value means how many spaces away from zero a point is.

If a point is placed at |-17| then it means the point is either 17 spaces positive or negative.

Also, you might not be talking about graphing and in this case then the absolute value of anything is positive while a number alone is just that number.

Answer:

f(x) = x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

first let's find b, the y-intercept

based on the graph, the y-intercept is (0,-3), so b = -3

immediately, we can eliminate f(x) = 3 - x and f(x) = -3x

The triangle below is equilateral. Find the length of side <br> x<br> x to the nearest tenth.
leonid [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

it's an equilateral triangle so all sides are equal

using Pythagorean theorem

2(√6) raised to the power of 2 = √6 raised to the power of 2 + x raised to the power of 2

2(√6) raised to the power of 2 is 12

√6 raised to the power of 2 is 6

therefore 12=6 + x

x = 12-6

x=6
