Mathematics

Verizon [17]4 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer-</u>

The absolute value of the difference of the two numbers was found to be 7.

<u>Solution-</u>

The given two numbers are, 2 and -5.

Between these two number,

larger number = 2

smaller number = -5

(∵ As 2 is right of -5 on the number line)


\left |larger\ number-smaller\ number \right|

=\left |2-(-5)\right |

=\left |2+5 \right|= 7


\left | smaller\ number -larger\ number \right|

=\left |(-5)-2 \right|

=\left |-5-2 \right|=\left |-7 \right|=7


Therefore, it can be proved the order doesn't matter if we take the difference in absolute value.

x+2>3
minus 2 both sides
x>1

Find the length of the segment with endpoints of (3,2) and (-3,-6).
MakcuM [25]
The formula of the length of the segment AB:
A(x_A;\ y_A);\ B(x_B;\ y_B)\\\\|AB|=\sqrt{(x_B-x_A)^2+(y_B-y_A)^2}
We have:
A(3;\ 2)\to x_A=3;\ y_A=2\\\\B(-3;\ -6)\to x_B=-3;\ y_B=-6
Substitute:
|AB|=\sqrt{(-3-3)^2+(-6-2)^2}=\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-8)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{36+64}=\sqrt{100}=10
Answer: B) 10.

Maggie has a container in the shape of a right prism. The formula for its surface area is SA = Ph + 2B. Solve for h.
7nadin3 [17]

SA = Ph + 2B. Solve for h.

To solve for h, you need to isolate it.

First step is to subtract 2B from both sides:

SA - 2B = Ph

Now divide both sides by P:

h = (SA - 2B) / P
