When is the absolute value of a difference equal to the difference of the absolute values?

1 answer:

7 0

ax(d) = absolute value of the difference = ax(a-b).
d(ax) = difference of the absolute value = ax(a) - ax(b).
ax(a-b) = absolute value of (a - b).
ax(a) - ax(b) = absolute value of (a) minus absolute value of (b).

Hope this works :)

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through (-3,1) and is parallel to the line represented by

Shalnov [3]

assume you want a line that goes through the given point and parallel to the given line. A line that is parallel to y=2/3 x + 5 will have the same slope. slope of that line is 2/3...the number in front of the x. So our new line will have slope of 2/3. now we need the y-intercept. To find that start with a slope intercept equation y=mx+b plug in the slope that we already know...it goes in for x...will be the number in front of x y= 2/3 x + b. now all we need is a number to plug in for the "b" and we will have it. to get the "b"...start with the part you already know. y = 2/3 x + b use the point they gave you...(-3,1)...and get x and y from it x will be -3 and y will be 1 plug that in 1= 2/3 ( -3) + b now we solve for b 1 = -2 + b 3 = b now we have the b we need y = 2/3 x + b y = 2/3 x + 3

The side lenghts of a triangle are 14,15, and x units

iragen [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

1 < x < 29

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle inequality requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the longest side.

When x and 14 are the shortest:

x + 14 > 15

x > 1

When 14 and 15 are the shortest:

14 +15 > x

29 > x

Then the requirement for the length of x is ...

1 < x < 29

Additional comment

The length of the third side of a triangle can be between the difference and sum of the two given sides.
