a. x=3, y=4, z=5

b. x=\sqrt{2}, y=\sqrt{2}, z=2

c.x= \sqrt{3}, y=2, z=\sqrt{7}

3. How many 4-letter code can be formed using the first 10 letters of the English alphabet, if no letter can be repeated?
galben [10]
Abcdefg
There cannot be more than two because there are only two vowels, e and a. But it has to be 4 lettered, which limits a lot of option, so there can only be one 4-letter code.

can two different numbers have the same absolute value? if yes, give an example. if no, explain why not.
jekas [21]
Yes.  Absolute values are always positive, so for example:

the absolute value of 1 is 1, and the absolute value of -1 is also 1


or the absolute value of 7 is 7, and the absolute value of -7 is also 7

and so on!
