If u r trying 2 find the absolute value of a positive number, the absolute value of it will not be a negative, it will always be a positive.

Answer:

⇒Absolute Value of a Number is always Positive , while the opposite of a number is finding the Additive inverse of a Number, that is they add to zero, when two opposite numbers are added.

|+x|=x, |+5|=5

|-x|=x, |-5|=5

And Opposite of 5 is -5 and Opposite of -5 is 5 because, -5+5=0 ,also, addition satisfies commutative Property, so (+5)+(-5)=0, will give same result.

Complete the square for 3x^2-12x=9
larisa [96]

Answer:

The solutions are -0.65 and 4.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 - 12x = 9

Divide both sides by 3

x^2 - 4x = 3

To make a square with "x^2 - 4x", you need to have a "+ 4" after it so it can be simplified as (x-2)^2.  So add 4 to both sides.

x^2 - 4x + 4 = 7

(x-2)^2 = 7

x - 2 = (square root) of 7

x = 2 (+/-) (square root) of 7.

x = {-0.65, 4.65}

The solutions are -0.65 and 4.65.

hope this helps:)sorry if it doesnt
