Answer:

$-2 \geq w \geq 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$|-w| \geq 2$

Required

Solve for w

$|-w| \geq 2$

In absolution functions;

$|-w| = |w|$

So, the given expression can be rewritten as

$|w| \geq 2$

Removing the absolute sign, will gibe

$w \geq 2$ or $w \leq -2$

When the second inequality os rewritten, it gives

$w \geq 2$ or $-2 \geq w$

Reorder both inequalities

$-2 \geq w$ or $w \geq 2$

Lastly, both inequalities are combined

$-2 \geq w \geq 2$

Which equation has a graph that goes through the points (4, -6) and (0, 6)?

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$y = -3x + 6\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the gradient of the equation

$\frac{Difference in y}{Difference in x} \\\\\frac{6 - - 6}{0 - 4} = \frac{12}{-4} = -3$

The equation will have the gradient -3x

Use the general equation of a line, and substitute the coordinates in to find the y-intercept.

$y = x + c\\ y = -3x + c\\$

(4, -6)

$-6 = -3(4) + c\\ -6 = -12 + c\\ -6 + 12 = c\\ c = 6$ $6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = 0 + c\\ c = 6$

(0, 6)

$6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = -0 + c\\ c = 6$

The equation of the line is

$y = -3x + 6\\$

Which statement is true about the value of |-14|

fomenos

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time, please share the possible answer choices.

The absolute value of any quantity, whether it be a + or - quantity, is zero or positive.

Thus, |-14| = the absolute value of -14 = +14
