Given
Brian's house: (-7, 9)
Sue's house: (-7, -2)
Find
The number of units between Brian's house and Sue's house.
Solution
Both Brian and Sue live on the "street" x=-7, so the distance between their houses is the distance between -2 on that street and +9 on that street. We always consider distance to be positive, so it doesn't matter whether we start at Brian's house and go -11 units to Sue's house, or start at Sue's house and go +11 units to Brian's house. Either way, we travel 11 units.
_____
"Displacement" is another matter. That has a sign associated with it and there is always a reference direction that is positive. Movement in the opposite direction results in a negative displacement. "Distance" is always positive.
Answer:
the first one hunz
Step-by-step explanation:
X + 20 <= √x + 9
x <= √x - 11
This can't be true without using imaginary numbers...
Any number of x greater than 0 will result in a false statement
Any number of x less than 0 will result in an imaginary number because of √x
If the amount of monkeys is m, lions is a, and lizards is b, then a+b+m=151, 17+a=m (since there are 17 more monkeys than lions), and 30+a=b. Substituting those values in (17+a=m and 30+a=b), we have 30+17+a+a+a=151=47+3a. Subtracting 47 from both sides, we get 104=3a. Next, we can divide both sides by 3 to get 104/3=a (the number of lions), 104/3+17=the number of monkeys, and 104/3+30=the number of lizards. Somehow we end up with a fraction (not a whole number), so there are 2/3rds of monkeys floating around using this logic.
