Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

|-10+4| = |-6|= 6

inside the | | the equation is done normally. that's why it has a negative at first. then, once getting rid of the bars, you change the number to a positive

Answer:

\boxed {\tt b(-10)=6}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

b(x)= \mid x+4 \mid

We want to find b(-10). Therefore, we must plug -10 in for each x.

b(-10)= \mid -10+4 \mid

Solve inside of the absolute value symbol. Add 4 to -10 ⇒ -10+4= -6

b(-10)= \mid -6 \mid

Absolute value represents how far away a number is from 0. It is always positive.

-6 is 6 away from 0. Therefore, the absolute value of -6 is 6.

b(-10)= 6

b(-10) is equal to 6.

List the fractions and decimals in order from least to greatest: -0.6,-5/8,-7/17,-0.72
zhuklara [117]
First, let's convert all of these numbers to decimal form:

(This will make it much easier to compare.)

- 0.6, - 0.625, - 0.4117, - 0.72

Now we can list them from least to greatest!

-0.4117, - 0.6, -0.625, -0.72

And don't forget to convert the selective decimals that we converted earlier back into fractions!

Therefore, the final list would be:
- 7/17, - 0.6, - 5/8, - 0.72

Hope this helps!

If the terminal side of angle θ passes through a point on the unit circle in the first quadrant where x=√2/2, what is the exact
Serhud [2]

The exact measure of the angle is 45°.

<h3>How to get the angle?</h3>

We know that the terminal side passes through a point of the form (√2/2, y).

Notice that the point is on the unit circle, so its module must be equal to 1, so we can write:

1 = \sqrt{( \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} )^2 + y^2} \\\\1^2 = \frac{2}{4} + y^2\\1 - 1/2 = y^2\\\\1/\sqrt{2} = y

We know that y is positive because the point is on the first quadrant.

Now, we know that our point is:

(√2/2, 1/√2)

And we can rewrite:

√2/2 = 1/√2

So the point is:

( 1/√2,  1/√2)

Finally, remember that a point (x, y), the angle that represents it is given by:

θ = Atan(y/x).

Then in this case, we have:

θ = Atan(1/√2/1/√2) = Atan(1) = 45°

What is the value of this expression when n approaches infinity?
topjm [15]

ANSWER

C. 35

EXPLANATION

The given expression is:

15 - 35 -  \frac{85}{n}  + 55 +  \frac{75}{2n}  +  \frac{15}{2 {n}^{2} }

As

n \to \:  \infty

\frac{k}{n}  \to0

where k is a constant.

This implies that,

15 - 35 -  \frac{85}{n}  + 55 +  \frac{75}{2n}  +  \frac{15}{2 {n}^{2} }  = 15 - 35 -  0 + 55 +  0+  0 =35

The correct answer is C

What is the percent decrease from 60 to 39?
IrinaK [193]
X - the percent decrease

60-60x=39 \ \ \ |-60 \\&#10;-60x=-21 \ \ \ |\div (-60) \\&#10;x=\frac{-21}{-60} \\ \Downarrow \\ x=\frac{-21}{-60}=\frac{-21 \div (-3)}{-60 \div (-3)}=\frac{7}{20}=\frac{7 \times 5}{20 \times 5}=\frac{35}{100}=35\%

It's a 35% decrease.
