Not necessarily. the absolute value of a number is that number's distance from 0 on a number line. if your taking the absolute value of a negative value, what you stated would be true. however, what if you took the absolute value of a positive number? hope that answers your question.
9x^2 - 8x - 1 = 0
(9x + 1(x - 1) = 0
x = -1/9 , 1
x intercepts are -1/9 and 1.
The correct answer is .05
To solve, find the decimal of each of the probabilities:
Flipping Tails: 1/2 ----> .5
Picking 3: 1/10-----> .10
Now, multiply them together:
.5 x .10 = .05
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
17) 3x+5-12+4x+2x
3x+4x+2x +5-12
8x-7
if x =6
8*6-7 =48-7
= 41
18.) 9(3x-4y+8)
27x-36y+72
I'm not 100% sure but I think this is how you solve it:
1. 800,000 x 0.06 = 48,000
2. 48,000 x 17 = 816,000
3. 800,000 + 816,000 = 1,616,000
The painting is worth $1,616,000 in 2017.
