An absolute value is positive value of any value. So the abs value of -28 is 28. The abs value of 67 is 67. Makes sense?
If it were |27-3| for example, treat the inside of a abs as parenthesis, so you must complete PEMDAS inside of it to reduce the equation to |24|, unless you wanted it to become |27| - |3|.
For functions, this becomes slightly different and more difficult, especially when adding a variable such as x. Look below for a sample equation.
|2x-3|=1
This equation will actually have (and most others) 2 solutions for x. To find these, you’ll need to multiply the inside of the abs by -1 for one equation, and leave it as it is for the other!
2x-3=1 -(2x-3)=1
Now you have to solve BOTH equations to get your correct x-value answers.
For the first listed equation:
2x=4
x=2
For the second listed equation:
-2x+3=1
-2x=-2
x=-1
So you get the x-values -1 and 2 which both make the parent function true!

Answer:
7.7 km
Explanation:
Use cosine rule as here given two sides and one angle.
Cosine rule states:
a² = b² + c² - 2bc cos(A)
While solving, treat a = 7.5 km as to that opposite angle is given of 68°
then b = missing side, c = 5.2 km, A = 68°
Applying rule:
7.5² = b² + 5.2² - 2(b)(5.2) cos(68)
56.25 = b² + 27.04 - 3.8959b
56.25 - 27.04 = b² - 3.8959b
b² - 3.8959b = 29.21
b² - 3.8959b - 29.21 = 0
apply quadratic equation, Here [a = 1, b = - 3.8959, c = -29.21]
As length cannot be negative. Hence the value of b is only 7.7 km
Answer:
The answer would be b.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can easily use process of elimination here. a would not be correct because it's saying that as you move forward, you increase when it's the total opposite. You are decreasing as you move forward.
C and D would not be correct because they both are talking about 0 temperature, and there is no data for that temperature.
So B is the correct answer.
