The followings options with the greatest absolute value would be -19.

Absolute value is the numbers distance away from zero.

A. The absolute value is 19

B. The absolute value is 0

C. The absolute value is 8

D. The absolute value is 11

Out of all of these the greatest one is A. -19

Hope I helped!

Absolute value is a number's distance from 0. All negatives will be converted into positives in mods

|-19| = 19

|0| = 0

|8| = 8

|-11| = 11

-19 has the highest absolute value.

For which pair of functions is the vertex of k(x)7 units below the vertex of f(x)?

kvv77 [185]

Answer: Option C

$f(x) = x^2;\ k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we have a main function f(x) and we want to transform the graph of f(x) by moving it vertically then we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) + b$

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units down.

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units upwards.

In this case we have

$f (x) = x ^ 2$

We know that this function has its vertex in point (0,0).

Then, to move its vertex 7 units down we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) - 7\\\\k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$ .

Then the function k(x) that will have its vertex 7 units below f(x) is

$k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

Sam has 3x + 4 dollars saved. Tessa has saved 7x + 16 dollars. Together they

Shalnov [3]

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4 + 7x + 16 = 110

10x = 90

x = 9

therefore, Sam = $31 and Tessa = $79

Catarina and Tom want to buy a rug for a room that is 9 by 19 feet. They want to leave an even strip of flooring uncovered aroun

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

17ft wide

Step-by-step explanation:

The room is 9 by 19ft

Length (x) = 19ft

Width(y) = 9ft

Area of the rug = 119ft^2

x*y = 119 ...........(1)

For the second equation we will make sure the strip around the room is uniform in size

9 - x = 19 - y

-x = 19 - 9 -y

-x = 10 - y

x = y - 10 ..........(2)

Put the value x in equation 1

(y - 10)y = 119

y^2 - 10y = 119

y^2 - 10y - 119 = 0

a = 1, b = -10, c= -119

Use quadratic formula to solve the equation

y = (-b +/-√b^2 -4ac) / 2a

y = [-(-10) +/- √ (-10)^2 - 4(1)(-119)] /2(1)

y = (10 +/- √100 + 476) /2

y = (10+/-√ 576 ) / 2

y = (10 +/- 24) / 2

y = (10 + 24) /2 or (10 - 24)/2

y = 34/2 or -14/2

y = 17 or -7

y = 17 ft

Recall that x = y - 10

x = 17 - 10

x = 7ft

]solomon needs to justify the formula for the arc length of a sector. which expression best completes this argument? the circumf

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

$\frac{2 \pi r}{\frac{360^{\circ}}{n^{\circ}}}$ best completes this argument

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of circle = $\pi \cdot d$

Where d is the diameter of circle

We are given that if equally sized central angles, each with a measure of n°, are drawn, the number of sectors that are formed will be equal to $\frac{360^{\circ}}{n^{\circ}}$

So, Number of sectors = $\frac{360^{\circ}}{n^{\circ}}$

The arc length of each sector is the circumference divided by the number of sectors

$\Rightarrow \frac{\pi \cdot d}{\frac{360^{\circ}}{n^{\circ}}}$

Diameter d = 2r (r = radius)

$\Rightarrow \frac{2 \pi r}{\frac{360^{\circ}}{n^{\circ}}}$

Option b is true

Hence $\frac{2 \pi r}{\frac{360^{\circ}}{n^{\circ}}}$ best completes this argument
