What is the answer for |x|=9

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maru [420]3 years ago
8 0

The absolute value |x| returns the "positive version" of a number.

In other words, if the number is positive, it remains positive; if the number is negative, it changes sign.

So, if we want |x|=9, we want the "positive version" of x to be 9.

This can happen in two ways: if x is already 9, then its absolute value is still nine. If instead x=-9, its positive value will be 9 again.

In formula, we have

|x|=9 \iff x=\pm 9

because

|9|=9,\quad |-9|=9

A motorboat can maintain a constant speed of 44 miles per hour relative to the water. The boat makes a trip upstream to a certai
serg [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance upstream = (34-c)(39/60) miles

--------------------------

Distance downstream = (34+c)(29/60) miles

-----------------------------------------------

Equation:

distance = rate*time

distance up = distance down

(34-c)(39/60) = (34+c)(29/60)

Multiply both sides by 60 to get:

39(34-c) = 29(34+c)

39*34 - 39c = 29*34 + 29c

68c = 340

c = 5 mph speed of the current

7. for normal situations, the minimum speed limit throughout the u.s. interstate highway system is 72 km/hr which is 45 miles pe
gladu [14]

Answer:

Question 7: Distance = 237.6 km

Question 8: Distance = 399.3 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 7:

Given:

Minimum speed (s) = 72 km/hr

Time taken (t) = 3.3 hours.

We know that, distance traveled is equal to the product of speed and time.

Therefore using distance formula, we get:

Distance = Minimum speed × Time

Distance = s\times t

Distance = 72\times 3.3 = 237.6\ km

Therefore, distance traveled at this speed is 237.6 km.

Question 8:

Maximum speed (S) = 121 km/hr

Time taken (T) = 3.3 hours.

We know that, distance traveled is equal to the product of speed and time.

Therefore using distance formula, we get:

Distance = Maximum speed × Time

Distance = S\times T

Distance = 121\times 3.3 = 399.3\ km

Therefore, distance traveled at this speed is 399.3 km.
