The absolute value is how far away a number is from the number line, so it is always positive. If Carlos finds the opposite of the absolute value, that means he found the negative version. So Jason's final value will be greater.

The opposite of 5.3 is -5.3

Abslote value of this is 5.3

il63 [147K]

Answer:

√254 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is basically a triangle, with a height of 2, and hypotenuse of 16.

Using the Pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=h^2) we can find the other side.  

2^2+b^2=16^2

4+b^2=256

b^2=254

b=√254

Use a reference angle to write sec255∘ in terms of the secant of a positive acute angle. Do not include the degree symbol in you
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: sec (75) or csc (15)

Step-by-step explanation:

255 is in the 3rd quadrant where the secant is. Here, the tangent and cotangent is positive.

Reference angle for 255 is,

255 - 180 = 75 degrees.

Therefore, sec (255) = sec (75)

= csc (90 - 75) = csc (15)

Which statements best describe the dot plot or box plot? Check all that apply
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

<h2>The box plot is the only display that can be used to show the variability of the data.</h2><h2>The median appears clearly on the box plot at the line within the box: 10.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

When we want to represent variability, we use a box plot instead of a dot plot, because the box plot allow us to observe the range of the data set, that is, the minium and the maximum value.

Remember that variability is about the spread of the dataset, and the range is a measure that can give a pretty good idea of it, shown by a box plot.

Therefore, the last hoice is correct.

On the other hand, according to the dot plot, the median is 10, because there are 13 total values, where the central value is 10.

Therefore, the second choice is correct.
