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.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

In each supply bag, Mrs. Wilson packed 3 rubber bands and 4 paper clips for her students.

Now, it is given that she had used 48 rubber bands.

Hence, there will be (48/3) =16 supply bags that had been used.

Now, in 16 supply bags, there will be (16×4) =64 paper clips.

Therefore, 64 paper clips that she had used. (Answer)

Of the $2400 Mr Calvin earned, he spent 3/8 on food, 1/3 on taxes and 1/6 on other expenses. Find out how much all this is in do
sattari [20]

Answer: $300

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Calvin earned  \$2400

He spent  \frac{3}{8} on food i.e.

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{8}\times 2400=\$900

\dfrac{1}{3}\quad \text{on taxes i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}\times 2400=\$800

\dfrac{1}{6}\ \text{on other expenses i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}\times 2400=\$400

Remaining money = 2400-900-800-400=\$300

So, he saved $300 after expenses
