Answer:
Option b
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value is a function that transforms any value x into a positive number.
Therefore, for the function
x> 0 for all real numbers.
Then the equation:
has two cases
if
(i)
if
(ii)
We solve the case (i)

We solve the case (ii)

Then the solution is:
or 
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
let s = total songs sung at the concert
If it took 1/8 to sing one song, it would take 1/8 x s hours to sing s songs
= 
1/8 s = 5/4
Divide both sides of the equation by 8
s = 5/4 x 8
s = 10
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given 2 fractional numbers:

We have to use fraction strips to compare to the fractional numbers.
Let we are Comparing
with the length of
number of
sections.
i.e.

Let we are Comparing
with the length of
number of
sections.
i.e.

Now, let us have a look at 3rd part of question:
The sections of 2/4 is _____ the length of 5/8. Therefore, 2/4 < 5/8
Let the answer be
.
So, the equation becomes:

So, the answers are:

Answer:
k = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
direct variation equation is y = kx where 'k' is the constant of variation
substitute 36 for 'y' and 72 for 'x' to get:
36 = 72k
solve for 'k' to get:
k = 36/72 or k = 1/2
