Absolute Value is the distance from 0, so when you have -|22| that means its the absolute value of 22 then add the negative sign so that means it's further from 0 than |-22|.

I hope this will help.

Vivenne, John and nassim ran for 6th grade class president. Vivenne got four votes for every 3 votes that John got. Nassim got t

liq [111]

Answer:

John received 10% of the overall votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the number of votes John got = m

So, the number of votes Vivienne received = 3 times (John's share )

= 3 times m = 3 m

Also, The number of Votes Nassim received = 2 times ( Vivienne's share)

2 x (3 m) = 6 m

Total Votes in the grade 6

= Votes received by { John + Vivienne + Nassim}

= m + (3 m) + (6 m) = 10 m

Hence, the total number of students who voted in grade 6 = 10 m

$\textrm{The percentage of John's Votes } = \frac{\textrm{Number of votes John received}}{\textrm{Total number of votes }} \times 100$

= $\frac{m}{10m} \times 100 = 10$

or, The percentage of John's Votes = 10%

Hence, John received 10% of the overall votes.

A pyramid of volume 344 square units is sliced into two pieces by a plane parallel to the base of the pyramid and 10 units away

Tom [10]

Answer:

80 units

Step-by-step explanation:

v = 1/3 bh

v₁ = 1/3 * b * h₁ = 344

v₂ = 1/3 * b * h₂ = 301

v₁ / v₂ = h₁ / h₂ = 344 / 301

h₂ = h₁ - 10

h₁ / (h₁ - 10) = 344 / 301

344 * (h₁ - 10) = 301 * h₁

344* h₁ - 3440 = 301 * h₁

43 * h₁ = 3440

h₁ = 80
