The answer is:  - 6 .
_____________________________________________

Evaluate the value INSIDE the "bars". 
  b - a  =  -2  -  4  = -6 .  The absolute value of the value inside inside the bars is the "positive" number of that value.  The value is negative 6; so, the absolute value, or "magnitude", of "-6", is "6";  Then, then "-" (6) = -6.  So the answer is: -6 .

A rectangular box is twice as long as it is wide. The height of the box is 3 feet less than the width. If the box is x feet wide
Xelga [282]
In order to get the volume of a rectangular box, the formula would be V = LxWxH.
So given that Length L = 2w
H = 3-w
W = x
Let x be the width, so it will look like this.
V = (2x)(x-3)(x)
Multiply these and we will get 2x^3-6x^2.
Therefore, the answer would be option D. Hope this answer helps. Let me know if you need more help next time.

If a=(-1, -3) and b=(11, -8) what is the length of ab?
professor190 [17]

Answer: D.  The length is 13 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1, -3 )    Find the difference between the x values and y values.

 (11, -8)  

-3-(-8) = 5

-1-11 =   -12    now find the  absolute values.

The absolute value of 5 is 5 .  The absolute value of  -12 is 12.

Now use the Pythagorean Theorem formula a^2 + b^2 =c^2  where c square is the length between AB.

5^2 + 13^2 = C^2

25 + 144 = c^2  

169=c^2

c= 13
