A negative minus a negative in the form -3.7 - ( -4.9) is 1.2. -3.7 -(-4.9) turns into -3.7 + 4.9. Whenever you are subtracting a negative number from another number it becomes positive. Hope this helps :-)

The ratio of the base edges of two similar pyramids is 3:4. The volume of the larger pyramid is 320 in3. What is the volume of t
Andre45 [30]
Use similar volume to calculate
which is the (ratio of edges)^3 = (ration of volume)
so just put the numbers in, let the volume of smaller pyramid be y.
(3/4)^3 = y/320
27/64 = y/320
y=135in3

- 4|7x + 2|=32<br><br> Please help, absolute value!
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

x= 6/7 or x = −10/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4(|7x+2|)=32

Step 1: Divide both sides by 4.

4(|7x+2|)/4 =32/4

|7x+2|=8

Step 2: Solve Absolute Value.

|7x+2|=8

We know either 7x+2=8 or 7x+2=−8

7x+2=8 (Possibility 1)

7x+2−2=8−2 (Subtract 2 from both sides)

7x/7 = 6/7

(Divide both sides by 7)

7x/7= 6/7

x= 6/7

7x+2=−8 (Possibility 2)

7x+2−2=−8−2 (Subtract 2 from both sides)

7x/7 = −10/7

(Divide both sides by 7)

x= −10/7

Answer:

x= 6/7 or x = −10/7
