No, while the difference represents the absolute magnitude of two numbers . . . for example . . .

The difference between 5 and 2 is . . . 3
The difference between 6.4 and 9.5 is . . . 3.1

 . . . there is still the chance that the difference may be zero . . . in which case the difference is neither positive nor negative

. . . so in short . . . the answer is . . . <span>NO</span>

Dan has twice as many stickers as cam does. If Dan gives cam 15 of his stickers he will have 22 more than cam. How many stickers
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Initially:

Cam has X stickers.

Dan has 2x.

Dan gives Cam 15 stickers:

Cam has x + 15 stickers.

Dan has 2x - 15 stickers.

2x - 15 = (x + 15) + 22.

X = 52 stickers.

x + 15 = 52 + 15 = 67 stickers.

2x - 15 = 2*52 - 15 = 89 stickers.

Which graph represents a function?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is where each input (here, the input is x) corresponds to exactly one output (here, the output is y). In other words, if a function is graphed, we should be able to draw a vertical line through every single part of it that will intersect it at only one place.

Let's examine each choice.

(A) Well, if we draw a vertical line through the graph, it will obviously intersect the entire line - which is an infinite number of intersections, so this is not a function.

(B) If we draw a vertical line through the portion of the graph that lies near the positive x-axis, we note that it will intersect twice, so this is not a function.

(C) If we strategically draw a vertical line through the y-axis, we see it will intersect two times, so this is not a function.

(D) We can draw a vertical line through any portion of this graph and know that it will only intersect once.

Therefore, the answer is D.
