Answer:

-(-45) and -|45|

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite of a number can also me termed the conjugate of such number. For example, the conjugate (opposite) of a is -a.

Also any value in the modulus sign can either be a negative or positive value. For example |a| can be +a or -a.

According to the question, we are to find the numbers that are equivalent to opposite of -45 i.e which of them are conjugate of -45.

To do this, we are to select the values in the options that will return +45.

Let's look at each option.

For -(-45):

Since the product of two negative sign will give a positive(+), then -(-45) = +45 and hence the value is opposite of -45

For -45:

-45 is a negative value and can never be positive since 45 is not inside a modulus sign. Hence, -45 is not equal to opposite of -45.

For −|−45|, |-45| can only return a positive value since -45 is already in a modulus sign. What the modulus sign will do is convert it to positive value i.e |-45| = 45. Hence -|-45| ≈ -(45) which is not also equivalent to the opposite of-45.

For -|45|:

The value inside modules will return both +45 and -45, hence it can be written as -|45| = -(-45) = +45. This shows that -|45| is also equivalent to the opposite of -45.

(5,4)

On a system of 2 perpendicular axis with O as origine, the pair (5,4) means:

5 is the distance from the origin O and situated on x-axis (on the right of O)
4 is the distance from the origin O and situated on y-axis (above O)

Then the pair (5,4) is situated in the 1st Quadrant

What numbers would you multiply -3/4 by to equal 1?
Sonja [21]
You would multiply by -4/3. That's cuz to get to 1, you have to cancel out the negative, with another negative. You then have to multiply by the reciprocal. 

Hope this helps!

Inessa05 [86]
Year      Net Profit
1            <span>$14,250.00
2            $15,390.00
3            $16,621.20
4            $17,950.90</span>2

We need to get the increase of the net profit of the current year from the previous year.

Percentage increase = (Current year - Previous Year)/ Previous Year    * 100%

Year 2:  (15,390 - 14, 250) / 14,250   * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Year 3: (16,621.20 - 15,390) / 15,390 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%
Year 4: (17,950.90 - 16,621.20) / 16,621.20 * 100% = 0.08 * 100% = 8%

Every year the net income increases by 8%. So, the net income in Year 5 will be:

17,950.90 x 1.08 = 19,386.97  Choice D.

An expert shot bits the target 95% of the time. What are the probabilities that he will miss the target: at least one time durin
Mkey [24]
If he hits the target 95% of the time, then you could say that he has a probability of 0.95, or 95% of hitting the target. Let p = the probability of hitting the target or p = 0.95. So you are interested that he misses the target at least once - this could be thought of as not getting a perfect score. So to get a perfect score, it is 0.95 for each target -- 0.95^15 for 15 targets is 0.464. Thus to miss at least one target he needs to NOT have a perfect score -- 1 - 0.464 = 0.536, or 53.6% of happening. Enjoy
