No she is not correct, because the absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on a number line. Therefore, you would take a number, say -1. The absolute value of this number is 1. So, add 1 and you would get 2. If I'm correct, 2 is not equal to zero. I hope this helps you out! ;)

A survey questioned 1000 people regarding raising the legal drinking age from 18 to 21. Of the 540 who favored raising the age,
Maslowich

Answer:

If a person selected at random from this group is a man, there is a 31.25% probability that the person favors raising the drinking age.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following informations:

There are 1000 people in total.

540 favored raising the age. Of them 390 were female, and 540-390 = 150 were male.

460 were opposed. Of them, 130 were female and 460-130 = 330 were males.

If a person selected at random from this group is a man, what is the probability that the person favors raising the drinking age?

There are 150+330 = 480 males. Of them, 150 favors raising the drinking age.

So

P = \frac{150}{480} = 0.3125

If a person selected at random from this group is a man, there is a 31.25% probability that the person favors raising the drinking age.

Find the solution to the system. Write your solution as an ordered pair (x,y) with no spaces, no solution, or infinitely many. X
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

(15, 11).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equation;

X=2y-7 ..... 1

4x+y=71 ....2

Substitute 1 into2;

4(2y-7) + y = 71

8y - 28 + y = 71

9y - 28 = 71

9y = 71 + 28

9y = 99

y = 11

Substitute y = 11 into 1;

x = 2y - 7

x = 2(11)-7

x = 22-7

x = 15

hence the solution to the equation is (15, 11).

HELP ME OUT PLEASE I RLLY NEED IT ASAP. ):
LenaWriter [7]

(a) Slope is rise over run, or change in y over change in x.

1 -> 3 ( \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} = \frac{4 - -8}{-1 - -5} = \frac{4 + 8}{-1 +5}= \frac{12}{4} =\frac{12}{4} )

2 -> 3 ( \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} = \frac{1 - 7}{0 - 2} = \frac{-6}{- 2} =\frac{6}{2} )

3 -> -1/3 ( \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} = \frac{-7 - -3}{6 - -6}= \frac{-7+3}{6+6}=\frac{-4}{12}=-\frac{1}{3} )

(b) If a line is parallel, the slopes will be the same. If they are perpendicular, the slopes will be are negative reciprocals of one another. If they are neither, then their slopes don't match up in any way.

1 & 2 -> Parallel

1 & 3 -> Perpendicular

2 & 3 -> Perpendicular

     Note - Since 1 & 2 are parallel, then both 1 and 2 will be perpendicular to 3!

Have a nice day!

     If this is not what you are looking for - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)
