Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

So you're dealing with absolute value which means that whatever is inside these symbols |  | will be positive after all the calculations inside are done.

Plug in your values

|(-2) + (-6)|/2

-2 - 6 = -8

absolute value of -8 is 8

8/2 = 4

First part is 4

|(-2) - (-6)|/2

-2 + 6 = 4

4/2 = 2

Second part is 2

Put the two values back into your original equation

4-2 = 2

in two or more complete sentences, describe how to graph the following equation. in your description, include the slope and both
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Slope: 0

x-intercept: there isnt one

y-intercept: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the easiest way to look at this is to put it in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.  when we just think about what y=2 would look like, we can imagine a straight horizontal line at y=2.  No matter what x value you choose, y will always equal 2.  We know the slope (m) of any horizontal line is zero because there is no rise and zero divided by anything is going to be zero.  we also know if y is always equal to 2 the y intercept will be 2.  this would give us y=0x+2.  to find the x intercept we just need to set y equal to zero in this equation.  this gives us 0=0x+2 or 0=2 which can never be true, therefore there will be no x intercept.

A major convention center, whose floors are covered by a square carpet tiles with side lengths of 9 inches laid out in a 48 by 9
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

option B

$28.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question,

side length of one square tile = 9 inches

area of square tile = l² = 9² = 81 inches²

<h3>Step1</h3>

There are 48(96) = 4608 carpet tiles, so the company was making 4608($.05) = $230.40.

<h3>Step2 </h3>

Now, the company countered with square feet. We have a total of 4608(81) = 373,248 square inches.

1 square foot = 144 square inches.

373,248/144 = 2592 square ft.

2592($.10) = $259.20

$259.20 - $230.40 = $28.80

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+4) ^ (1/3) + (2x+8) ^ (1/3) = 0

Subtract (x+4) ^ (1/3) from each side

(x+4) ^ (1/3) - (x+4) ^ (1/3)+ (2x+8) ^ (1/3) = -(x+4) ^ (1/3)

(2x+8) ^ (1/3) = -(x+4) ^ (1/3)

Cube each side

(2x+8) ^ (1/3) ^3= -(x+4) ^ (1/3)^3

2x+8 = -(x+4)

Distribute the negative sign

2x+8 = -x -4

Add x to each side

2x+8 +x =-x+x-4

3x+8 = -4

Subtract 8 from each side

3x+8-8 =-4-8

3x =-12

Divide by 3

3x/3 = -12/3

x = -4
