Not necessarily. the absolute value of a number is that number's distance from 0 on a number line. if your taking the absolute value of a negative value, what you stated would be true. however, what if you took the absolute value of a positive number? hope that answers your question.

What is a reasonable estimate for the solution? O (1,-3/4) O (-3/4,1) O (-1,3/4) O (3/4,-1)

Zina [86]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is incomplete, as the equations or graph or table(s) were not given.

However, I'll give a general way of solving this.

Take for instance, the equations are:

$y = \frac{4}{3}x - 1$

$y = \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2}$

To do this, we start by equating both equations.

$y = y$

i.e.

$\frac{4}{3}x - 1= \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2}$

Collect Like Terms

$\frac{4}{3}x - \frac{2}{3}x= 1 - \frac{1}{2}$

Take LCM

$\frac{4x- 2x}{3}= \frac{2 - 1}{2}$

$\frac{2x}{3}= \frac{1}{2}$

Cross Multiply

$2x * 2 = 3 * 1$

$4x = 3$

Make x the subject

$x = \frac{3}{4}$

Substitute 3/4 for x in $y = \frac{4}{3}x - 1$

$y = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{3}{4} - 1$

$y = 1 - 1$

$y = 0$

Hence:

$(x,y) = (\frac{3}{4},0)$

Xavier bought a shirt that was on sale for 20% off the original price. He also used a coupon that gave him an extra 15% off the

just olya [345]

To find the sale price multiply the original cost by the sale percentage. (37x.2= 7.4) subtract this discount from the total (37-7.4= 29.6) this is your sale price. Now multiply this by the other percentage (29.6x.15= 4.44) (29.6-4.44= 25.16) $25.16 is your final answer
