Answer: |3-(-8)|


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Paige lives 3 miles east of her school. Diego lives 8 miles west of the school.

From the picture , the number line represents the position of the houses of the two friends such that position of Paige is 3 but position of Diego is (-8) [since east and west are opposite directions]

We know that, Distance between any two points from A to B= B-A

Since distance is a positive quantity, thus

The distance between them = |3-(-8)| miles=11 miles

|3 - (-8)| is the correct answer.

That is because it simplifies to

3 + 8

That is because of the keep change flip

How do I solve the equation in an interval from 0 to 2π ? 9 cos 2t = 6​
Ivahew [28]

9\cos(2t)=6\implies\cos(2t)=\dfrac23

Using the fact that cos is 2π-periodic, we have

\cos(2t)=\dfrac23\implies2t=\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)+2n\pi

That is, \cos(\theta+2n\pi)=\cos\theta for any \theta and integer n.

\implies t=\dfrac12\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)+n\pi

We get 2 solutions in the interval [0, 2π] for n=0 and n=1,

t=\dfrac12\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)\text{ and }t=\dfrac12\cos^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)+\pi

How many solutions does the following equation have? ln(x2 + 4x − 5) = 0
lisov135 [29]
Alrighty
remember
log_a(b)=c means a^c=b
and
ln(x)=log_e(x)
and
x^0=1 for all real values of x
so

ln(x^2+4x-5)=0 means
log_e(x^2+4x-5)=0 means
e^0=x^2+4x-5 which simplifies to
1=x²+4x-5
minus 1 both sides
0=x²+4x-6
use quadratic formula or complete the square
x=-2+\sqrt{10} and x=-2-\sqrt{10}
