Which statement describes a number with the smallest absolute value?

1 answer:

4 0

I believe C. The temperature is -23 degrees.

This is because, a negative (absolute value) becomes positive

Which would lead for |-23| to end up being |23|

Anytime a negative absolute value is placed, it becomes a positive and a positive stays positive.

So the smallest would be C then B later D and at last A

A line has a y-intercept and a slope of 0. What is it’s equation in slope-intercept form ?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b so if m = 0 then x = 0 and if be is also 0 then that entire side of the equation is 0. Meaning that y = 0

The degree measure of an acute angle in a right triangle is x. If sinx=2/3, determine if each of the following expressions is al

leonid [27]

<h2> ☞ANSWER☜ </h2>

The right triangle has one 90 degree angle and two acute (< 90 degree) angles. Since the sum of the angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees... The two sides of the triangle that are by the right angle are called the legs... and the side opposite of the right angle is called the hypotenuse.

An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees. A triangle formed by all angles measuring less than 90˚ is also known as an acute triangle. For example, in an equilateral triangle, all three angles measure 60˚, making it an acute triangle.

Answer: 4(2x²+9) or $i\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation by factoring, we want to set the equation to zero. In order to have the equation equal to zero, we want to add both sides by 36.

8x²=-36 [add both sides by 36]

8x²+36=0

When it comes to factoring, we want to pull out numbers or variables that are common in each term.

8x²+36=0 [take out a 4 in each term]

4(2x²+9)=0

It may seem that 2x²+9 can be factored further, it actually can't. This tells us that the factored form of the equation is 4(2x²+9)=0.

To solve the equation, we want to find the value of x. We already know the graph does not cross the x-axis because the y-intercept or vertex is (0,9).

4(2x²+9)=0 [divide both sides by 4]

2x²+9=0 [subtract both sides by 9]

2x²=-9 [divide both sides by 2]

x²=-9/2 [square root both sides]

$x=\sqrt{-\frac{9}{2} }$ or $x=i\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}$
