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

Solve the system.

liraira [26]

Answer:

Option D is right,.

Step-by-step explanation:

-a+4b+2c=-8 ... i

3a+b-4c=9 ... ii

b=-1 ... iii

Substitute the value of b, in i and ii

-a-4+2c =-8 or -a+2c = -4

and 3a-1-4c = 9 or 3a -4c =8

Now we have two equations in two variables

-a+2c =-4 and 3a-4c =8

a = 2c+4: substitute this in the other equatin.

3(2c+4)-4c =8 Or 2c +12 =8

2c =-4 or c = -2

Substitute in -a+2c =12

-a-2 = -4

a = -2+4 =2

a=2, b=-1 and c =-1 is the solution.

A rectangular painting is 24 inches wide and 20 inches tall without the frame. With the frame, it is 28 inches wide and 24 inche

evablogger [386]

The area of the frame not covered by the painting is 192 square inches

Solution:

Given that, A rectangular painting is 24 inches wide and 20 inches tall without the frame

The area of rectangle is given as:

$Area = length \times width$

Find the area of painting without frame:

Length = 20 inches

Width = 24 inches

$Area\ Without\ Frame = 20 \times 24 = 480$

Thus area of painting without frame is 480 square inches

With the frame, it is 28 inches wide and 24 inches tall

Find the area of painting with frame:

Length = 24 inches

Width = 28 inches

$Area\ with\ frame = 24 \times 28 = 672$

Thus area of painting with frame is 672 square inches

What is the area of the frame not covered by the painting

Area of the frame not covered by the painting = Area with farme - Area without frame

Area of the frame not covered by the painting = 672 - 480 = 192

Thus the area of the frame not covered by the painting is 192 square inches
