Question: -|a-b| where a = 7, b = -3

Steps:

1. Plug it in:

-|7-(-3)|

2. Simplify:

-|7+3|

= -|10|

But since its |10| = -10

-(-10) = +10

So, the answer to this is 10.

Hope this helped!!!

7.RP.A.1 3. If 1 1/2 cups of something fills 2/3 of a container, how many cups fill the container?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

2 & 1/4 OR 2.25 cups fills the container!

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 & 1/2 (aka 3/2) fills 2/3 of the container, then:

we know that half of 3/2s fills 1/3 of the container

To find half of 3/2, we multiply 3/2 by the inverse of 2, which is 1/2.

3/2÷2

3/2×1/2 = 3/4 ths

Now that we know 3/4ths fills 1/3 of the container, we add that to 1& 1/2.

3/4+ 1&1/2 = 2 & 1/4

Check your work!

3/4 × 3 should equal 2&1/4 if we are correct

3/4 × 3/1 = 9/4.

Simplify!

9/4 = 2&1/4

That tells us that we are correct!

Hope this helps!

Delicious77 [7]

Solution :

It is given that a psychologist wants to determine the difficulty of the task influences on the estimate of how long people spend working on it.

Now we have to describe a experiment by using a completely randomized design and learn the effect of the difficulty on the estimated time is by randomly assigning 15 students to a Group 1 of easy mazes and other 15 students to the second group 2 of hard mazes. And then we compare the time estimates of the two groups.
