Answer: C. |-4 - 3|

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -4

y = 3

The distance between them is the difference. The mathematical operation for difference is subtraction.

Distance is a unit of measurement. Measurements cannot be negative so the absolute value sign is used to ensure the difference is positive.

Ryan Katie and Mike are roommates. They need to pay an electric bill. The bill is $155.52 The billing cycle is from nov23-dec23.

rusak2 [61]

Answer: Step-by-step explanation:

if I am correct.. Katie is gonna be paying $77.76. Meanwhile, Mike and Ryan are paying $38.88

half of 155.52 = 77.76

half of 77.76 = 38.88

$77.76 + $33.88 + $38.88 = $155.52

What is the domain of the function graphed below?

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The domain is the set of x values for which the function resides in.

In this graph, it is unclear as to if the function goes on to infinity, but if it does, the answer is quite easily:

(-2, 4] and [7, ∞)

since the function starts on the left at -2 then continues to the right, with a pause, then indefinitely after.

HELPPPPPPPPPPP Draw the graph of y = 2x + 3 on the grid

topjm [15]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=2x+3$

This is the equation of the line

To graph a line we need two points

Find the intercepts

1) The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

For x=0

$y=2(0)+3$

$y=3$

The y-intercept is the point (0,3)

2) The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

$0=2x+3$

$x=-3/2=-1.5$

The x-intercept is the point (-1.5,0)

To draw the graph of the line plot the intercepts and join the points

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure
