An integer is close to zero if it is "small".
By small, we mean that it is small in absolute value. In fact, for any given distance 
, there are two integers that are units away from zero: 
and 
.
So, for example, -6 is close to zero than 8, because -6 is six units away from zero, while 8 is eight units away from zero.
So, the answer is B, -8, because it is 8 units away from zero. The other options A, C and D are, respectively, 12, 10 and 14 units away from zero.
Answer:x = 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 = 6x - 4
/3
First you gotta get rid of the divided by 3
2x / 3 = 2/3x and 3 / 3 = 1
Now you have
2/3x + 1 = 6x - 4
Second you have to get rid of the 2/3x on the left side
2/3x + 1 = 6x - 4
-2/3x -2/3x
1 = 5 1/3x - 4
Third you have to get rid of the -4
1 = 5 1/3x - 4
-4 -4
-3 = 5 1/3x
Fourth you have to divide by 5 1/3
-3 = 5 1/3x
/ 5 1/3 / 5 1/3
x = 9/16
Answer:
Julie need to sell at least 45 shirts to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
The selling cost of each shirt = $ 20
Cost of each shirt = $6
The fixed cost per month = $420
Number of shirts she can make = 80
Hence, the <u>cost of making 80 shirts</u> = 80 x $6 = $480
So, her total capital investment of the month
= Cost of shirts made + Fixed cost = $420 + $480 = $900
Now, let us assume she sell k number of shirts.
⇒ $20 x k = $900
or, k = 900 / 20 = 45
or, k = 45
Hence, Julie need to sell at least 45 shirts to break even.
