<em>ANSWER:</em>

<h2>-15</h2>

<em>STEP:</em>

Absolute signs are signs that tell the number away from 0. So the absolute number cannot be negative. |x| = x. You don't know if the number was positive or negative. |-x|. |-x| is x since it tells it's x away from 0. -|x| is -x. Since the negative sign isn't in the absolute signs, you keep it as -15.

Hope this helps :D

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative is outside of the absolute value signs/lines. The absolute value is how far the number is from 0. So, it doesn't matter whether or not there is a negative sign inside of the absolute value lines it will always be positive. But, if it's outside of it, then it will be negative.

NemiM [27]

The upper quartile for NFC is 3 points higher than that of AFC.

<h3>What is the difference in the upper quartiles?</h3>

A box plot is used to study the distribution and level of a set of scores. The scores are distributed into 4 groups. Each group has a value of 25%

On the box, the third line on the box represents the upper quartile. 75% of the scores represents the upper quartile.

Upper quartile for AFC : 26

Upper quartile for NFC : 23

Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal as shown below.<br> Suppose m 6=63º. Find m 1 and m 3
tester [92]

Answer:

Both are 117 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 6 and 8 are vertical angles, they are congruent. So, 8 is also 63 degrees. Angle 4 corresponds to angle 8, so it is also 63. Angle 2 and angle 4 are vertical, so they are also congruent. So, angle 2 is 63. Since angle 1 and 2 form a straight line (180 degrees), you can find angle 1 by subtracting 63 from 180. You get 117. And since 1 and 3 are vertical, 3 is also 117.
