Answer: We are given:

The height h of a guardrail = 106 centimeters

Absolute deviation =  7 centimeters

The absolute value inequality is |x-106|\leq 7

To find the acceptable heights of a guardrail , we add and subtract absolute deviation(7) from the mean height(106)

The acceptable range of height is:

106 + 7 = 113

106 - 7 = 99

Acceptable heights are defined by

99 cm \leq h\leq 113cm

Therefore, the acceptable range of heights of a guardrail are 99 cm to 113 cm.

satela [25.4K]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Average of salary of Anne and David is 1.25 of Peter's Salary

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

In the question, relations between salaries of Peter, Anne, and David is given. From the given relations, we need to make few equations and calculate the average of Anne and David in terms of Peter's Salary.

Let us assume Peter's Salary as P.

Then we can calculate Anne's salary A = \frac{P}{2}.

Also David's salary = D = 2 \times P

Average of Anne's and David's salary = \frac{A+D}{2}

Average of Anne's and David's salary  = \frac{\frac{P}{2} + 2 \times P}{2}

Average of Anne's and David's salary  = \frac{5 \times P}{4}

Average = 1.25 \times P

The lines shown below are perpendicular. If the green line has a slop of 2/5, what is the slope of the red line?
aivan3 [116]

The slope of the red line that is perpendicular to the green line is: -5/2.

<h3>What are the Slope Values of Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

When one line lies perpendicular to another line, the slope of one must be the negative reciprocal of the other line.

<h3>What is the Negative Reciprocal of a Number?</h3>

If given a number, i.e. a/b, the negative reciprocal of a/b would the opposite value of the reciprocal of a/b.

Reciprocal of a/b is b/a. Negative reciprocal of a/b would therefore be: -b/a.

Given that the slope of the green line is: 2/5. And it is perpendicular to the red line. The slope of the red line would be the negative reciprocal of 2/5.

Negative reciprocal of 2/5 is -5/2.

Therefore, the slope of the red line is: -5/2.

What is the additive inverse of the complex number –8 + 3i?
Lady bird [3.3K]
Choices:
–8 – 3i
–8 + 3i
8 – 3i
<span>8 + 3i

The additive inverse of the complex number a + bi is -(a+bi) = -a - bi

In this case, a = -8 and b = 3i

a + bi = -8 + 3i
additive inverse is:  -(-8+3i) = +8 - 3i

The additive inverse of the complex number -8 + 3i is 8 - 3i. The 3rd choice.
