Answer:

Distance = abs(-1700)

Distance = 1700 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

NYC is located East of Los Angels.

The Airplane flies from Los Angeles to the left direction from NYC.

Which is negative direction.

Therefore, distance = -1700

Here the distance cannot be negative even though if it flies in negative direction.

Therefore, we use the absolute value.

The absolute value of a number is always positive.

So, distace = abs( -1700)

Distance = 1700 miles.

Hope this will help you understand the concept.

Thank you.

1 divided 5/12=-3/10
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

t = - 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

t ÷ 5/12 = - 3/10

t × 12 ÷ 5 = - 3/10

12t/5 = - 3/10

12t × 10 = -3 × 5

120t = - 15

t = - 15/120

t = - 1/8

Thus, t divided 5/12 = - 3/10 => -1/8

Four points from a line are shown in the table below.
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Correct choice is D. y=-x+3.

Step-by-step explanation:

pick any two points from the table say (0,3) and (1,2)

Now we we can use both points to find the equation of line.

slope m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{2-3}{1-0}=\frac{-1}{1}=-1

now plug slope m=-1 and any point say (0,3) into point slope formula

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

y-3=-1\left(x-0\right)

y-3=-1\left(x\right)

y-3=-x

y=-x+3

Hence correct choice is D. y=-x+3.
