Answer:

The correct answer is A. >

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to take into account is that the sign  |  | refers to absolute value. The absolute value consists of making any number inside positive. It doesn't matter if the number inside is positive or negative the result will be always positive. Let's see an example.

|8|=8

|-8|=8

As you can see, the result for |8| is the same for |-8| which is 8.

With that in time, let's make the same procedure for |-18.25|\, \, \, \, \, |10.75|

According to the previous the first and second numbers would be:

  1. |-18.25|=18.25
  2. |10.75|=10.75

As 18.25 is higher than 10.75 (18.25 > 10.75), the answer is |-18.25|>|10.75|.

Thus, the correct answer is A. >

The absolute value of any number is its <em>distance from 0</em>. -18.25 is 18.25 units from 0, so |-18.25| = 18.25, and by similar thinking, |10.75| = 10.75. Since 18.25 is bigger than 10.75, we can write |-18.25| > |10.75|

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

6081 (original 1806)

Step-by-step explanation:

to get from 1/6 to 7 you must multiply by 42

then you multiply 42 by 43

42 * 43 = 1806

the answer is 1806 but the unlock code is backwards so its 6081

In ΔEFG, the measure of ∠G=90°, the measure of ∠E=19°, and FG = 62 feet. Find the length of GE to the nearest tenth of a foot.
Dominik [7]

Answer:180.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using tan to find the answer; Opposite/Adjacent = 62/x

tan19=62/x

xtan19=62 (cross multiply)

xtan19/tan19=62/tan19 (Divide each side by tan19)

x=62/tan19=180.0611=180.1 feet

3.606 is the answer
H^2 = P^2 + B^2
H^2 = 3^2 + 2^2
H^2 = 9+4
H^2 = 13
H = root 13
H = 3.606 (simple radical Form)

The product of two consecutive positive odd numbers is 195.By constructing a quadratic equation and solving it, find the two num
Tomtit [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = one odd number

the second odd number is (x+2), as both are consecutive.

so,

x × (x + 2) = 195

x² + 2x = 195

x² + 2x - 195 = 0

the formula to solve this is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = 2

c = -195

x = (-2 ± sqrt(4 - 4×1×-195))/(2×1) =

= (-2 ± sqrt(4 + 4×195))/2 = (-2 ± sqrt(784))/2 =

= (-2 ± 28)/2 = -1 ± 14

x1 = -1 + 14 = 13

x2 = -1 - 14 = -15 which is invalid as the numbers are positive.

so, the two numbers are 13 and 15.
