"The absolute value of an integer is its distance from zero on a number line. For example, the absolute value of -8 is +8, because -8 is 8 units from zero on the number line. Note that the absolute value of any positive or negative integer is positive." http://www.mathhelp.com/how_to/integers_and_the_number_line/opposites_and_absolute_value/

Opposite:
Just change the sign.
If it's a positive number, make it negative.
If it's a negative number, make it positive.

Absolute value:
Even easier.
Just throw away the sign, and you have it.

A faraway planet is populated by creatures called Jolos. All Jolos are either green or purple and either one-headed or two-heade
enyata [817]

A. 260

Explanation

Step 1

Let

\begin{gathered} green\text{ jolos,one-headed jolo=170} \\ \text{Purple ,two-headed jolos=284} \\ one\text{ headed jolos=430} \end{gathered}

as we can see

the total of green-one headed jolo is 170

and the total for one headed jolo is =430

so, the one-headed in counted twice

\begin{gathered} total\text{ of gr}en\text{ jolos= }430-170 \\ total\text{ of gr}en\text{ jolos= }260 \end{gathered}

so, the answer is

A.260

I hope this helps you

Solve the system using elimination.<br> -9x - 4y = 1<br> 3x + 3y = 3<br> ([?], [])
irakobra [83]

Step-by-step explanation:

-9x-4y=1....eq1

3x+3y=3.....eq2

multiply eq2 by 3

to get

9x+9y=9....eq3

add eq1 and 3

0+5y=10

5y=10

divide both sides by 5

y=2

substitute y=2 in to eq1

-9x-4(2)=1

-9x-8=1

grouping of like terms

-9x=1+8

-9x=9

divide both sides by -9

x= -1

now the answer is

x= -1, y=2
