An integer is close to zero if it is "small".
By small, we mean that it is small in absolute value. In fact, for any given distance 
, there are two integers that are units away from zero: 
and 
.
So, for example, -6 is close to zero than 8, because -6 is six units away from zero, while 8 is eight units away from zero.
So, the answer is B, -8, because it is 8 units away from zero. The other options A, C and D are, respectively, 12, 10 and 14 units away from zero.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 pieces such that each piece is 2 cm longer then the next...
x , x + 2, x + 4
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 30
3x + 6 = 30
3x = 30 - 6
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8
x + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10
x + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12
check...
8 + 10 + 12 = 30
18 + 12 = 30
30 = 30 (correct)...it checks out
the ribbon lengths are : 8 cm, 10 cm, and 12 cm
Answer:
x = 41
Step-by-step explanation:
We know these angles will be equal to each other (they are across from each other, I honestly forget the term ) so we can set up an equation
Our equation from given: 104 = 3x - 19
Adding 19 to both sides 123 = 3x
Dividing both sides by 3: 41 = x
Answer: x = 41
