2.9.
Absolute value is how far away a number is from 0 on a number line, so -2.9 is 2.9 away.

2.9 |x| means absolute value or the distance from 0 which is 2.9

When a colcano erupts the height of the peak id reduced and the upper portion is removed the height of a volcano after it erupte

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

9670 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height given (8219.5 ft) is 85% OF ORIGINAL, hence original is much higher. But how do we figure this out?

we translate word problem to equation.

8219.5 IS 85% of TOTAL

Firstly, 85% = 85/100 = 0.85

Remember, is means =

of means multiplication

So we have:

8219.5 = 0.85 * Total

Hence, total = [let total be 7]

8219.5 = 0.85 * t

t = 8219.5/0.85 = 9670 feet

Start with the parentheses first

4.6 -4.4+7.8 then calculate from left to right
= 0.2+7.8 = 8

What is the inverse of f(x)=(x+6)2 for x≥–6 where function g is the inverse of function f? g(x)=x√−6, x≥0 g(x)=x−6−−−−√, x≥6 g(x

avanturin [10]

Answer:

$g(x)=\sqrt{x}-6$ , x>=0

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=(x+6)^2$

To find the inverse function , replace f(x) by y

$y=(x+6)^2$

Replace x with y and y with x

$x=(y+6)^2$

Solve the equation for y

take square root on both sides

$+\sqrt{x} =y+6$

Now subtract 6 from both sides

$+\sqrt{x}-6=y$

replace y with g(x)

$g(x)=\sqrt{x}-6$
