The absolute value is the distance as to how far away the number is from 0. Ex: the absolute value of -7 is 7. Absolute value of 7 is 7.

Absolute value is the distance between the point and 0

Absolute value uses these: | <span>| 

</span>For example: | -7| = 7 because the distance from -7 to 0 is 7

Hope this helps :)

An engineer is designing a roller coaster. The tallest peak is 310 feet high.
rusak2 [61]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The slope of the hill is equal to 2.

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve the problem, we need to remember that the slope of a line, is the rate of increase or decrease of the line.

From the statement we know that the tallest peak of the roller coaster is 310 feet (y), while the roller coaster travels 155 horizontal feet (x), so, calculating we have:

Slope=\frac{height}{base}=\frac{y}{x}

Then, substituting the given information and calculating, we have:

Slope=\frac{310ft}{155ft}=2

We have that the slope of the hill is equal to 2.

Have a nice day!

Find the area of the region bounded by the $y$-axis, the line $y=6$, and the line $y = \frac{1}{2}x$.
Iteru [2.4K]

For a better understanding of the solution provided here please go through the diagram in the file that has been attached.

As can be clearly seen from the question and the graph, the area is bounded by a straight line y=\frac{1}{2}x which passes through the origin, the y axis and the horizontal line y=6.

As we can see from the graph, this is a right triangle. To find the point of intersection of the horizontal line y=6 and the line y=\frac{x\1}{2}x, we will have to equate the two as:

\frac{1}{2}x=6

Therefore, x=12

Thus, y=\frac{1}{2}x= \frac{1}{2}\times 12=6

Hence the point of intersection is (12,6) which is depicted on the graph too.

As this is a case of a simple right triangle, the area of the bounded region will thus be:

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times height

Let the base be the y=6 line whose length is 12 and let height be the y axis whose length is 6, thus, the area will be:

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 12=36 squared units.

A map has a scale of 1 in.:10 mi. Find the distance on the
Finger [1]

The cities are 14.7 inches apart on the map.  

An inch on the map is 10 miles on the ground. That is what a scale of 1 in  :  10 miles means.

If a distance is 147 miles on the ground therefore, on the map it will be:

= Distance on map / conversion factor

= 147 / 10

= 14.7 inches

The distance between the two cities on the map is 14.7 inches.
