Jimmy and Tony observed two points, P and Q, on a number line. A number line is shown from negative 1 to positive 1 with increme

nts of 1 over 8. The numbers negative 1, negative 6 over 8, negative 4 over 8, negative 2 over 8, 0, 2 over 8, 4 over 8, 6 over 8 are labeled on the number line. A point P is shown at the fifth tick mark to the left of 0, and a point Q is shown at the fifth place to the right of 0. Jimmy said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are the same. Tony said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are different. Which of the following explains who is correct?

Answer:

P is 5 ticks to the left of 0, so it would be -5/8

Q is 5 ticks to the right of 0, so it would be at 5/8

an absolute value turns a negative number into a positive number

so absolute value of  P located at -5/8 = 5/8

this is the location of point Q

Jimmy said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are the same.  

so Jimmy is correct

I'd really appreciate it if you'd help! :)

The answer to your question is

h=2y+36

why?

because he was already 36 inches which mean he would be adding on the inches.

So he would grow 2 inches a year plus the 36 inches he already was.


Hope this helps

Answer:

347 is the initial spider population

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ab^x

is the formula for exponential growth and decay

a = the initial value

b is the growth or decay rate

b>1  it is the growth rate  (b-1) is the percent

0<b<1 it is the decay rate (1-b) is the percent

y = 347(1.2)^x

347 is the initial spider population

(1.2-1) = .2 = 20 % growth rate

2(1 – 8x) = 1/2 (8 - 64x)​

Answer:

x=\frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

A quick review on PEMDAS, the order of how to solve an equation:

P - parentheses. When parentheses are being used, you have to do everything inside them before doing everything outside of them.

E - exponents. We'll skip these, since there aren't any exponents we need to worry about in this equation.

M/D - multiplication/division. I include these both together because they can be done at the same time.

A/S = addition/subtraction. Can also be done at the same time.

Some other things to note:

You add all the things with an x attached to it, and you add all the things without an x attached to it, and these never cross.

When you bring something from one side of an equal sign to another, you make it negative.

Let's solve for x using what we've learned:

2(1-8x)=\frac{1}{2} (8-64x)\\2-16x=4-32x\\16x=2\\x=\frac{2}{16} \\x=\frac{1}{8}
