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|

Alice and Bob each have a certain amount of money. If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob, then she will have $4$ times as much
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: 31 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the following:

Alice's amount = P

Bob's amount = Q

Amount received = n

If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob ;then she will have $4$ times as much money as Bob.

P + n = 4(Q - n)

P + n = 4Q - 4n

P = 4Q - 4n - n

P = 4Q - 5n - - - - (1)

If, on the other hand, she gives $n$ dollars to Bob, then she will have $3$ times as much money as Bob

P - n = 3(Q + n)

P - n = 3Q + 3n

P = 3Q + 3n + n

P = 3Q + 4n - - - - - - (2)

Equating both equations - (1) and (2)

4Q - 5n = 3Q + 4n

4Q - 3Q = 4n + 5n

Q = 9n

Express P in terms of n, use either equation (1) or (2)

From equation 2:

P = 3Q + 4n

Substituting Q = 9n

P = 3(9n) + 4n

P = 27n + 4n

P = 31n

Alice's amount = P, Bob's = Q

Ratio = P:Q

What is the value of x in the equation 2(x – 3) + 9 = 3(x + 1) + x?<br>x = <br>​
sukhopar [10]

Start with

2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x

Expand both parentheses by multiplying both terms by the number outside:

2x-6+9 = 3x+3+x

Sum like terms:

2x+3 = 4x+3

Simplify the "+3" on both sides:

2x = 4x

Subtract 2x from both sides:

2x=0

Divide both sides by 2:

x=0
