Is |-6| a negative integer

Mathematics
1 answer:
stiv31 [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

NO. |-6| = 6 - a positive integer

Step-by-step explanation:

|a| = a for a ≥ 0

examples

|2| = 2, |0| = 0, |0.56| = 0.56

|a| = -a for a < 0

examples

|-2| = -(-2) = 2, |-100| = -(-100) = 100, |-0.25| = 0.25

Therefore your answer:

|-6| = 6 > 0

Step 2 :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1 Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 3 as the denominator :

5 5 • 3
5 = — = —————
1 3
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

x + 5 • 3 x + 15

Please help explanation if possible
poizon [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The given equation is:

y = -2x + 5………………(i)

Comparing the equation with y = mx+c, we get;

m1 = -2

Also another equation of the line which passes through point (-4,2), we get;

(y-2) = m2(X+4)............(ii) { using the formula (y-y1) = m2(x-x2)}

According to the question, they are perpendicular to eachother, So according to the condition of perpendicular lines;

m1*m2 = -1

-2*m2 = -1

or, m2 = 1/2.

Therefore, m2= 1/2.

Now, keeping the value of m2 in equation (ii).

(y-2) = 1/2(x+4)

y = (1/2)x + 4

Therefore, the required equation is: y = (1/2)x + 4.

<u>Hope</u><u> it</u><u> helps</u><u>!</u>
