I am confused about how to explain this: Explain the difference in meaning between |-3| and -3.

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|-3| means the absolute value of -3. The absolute value sign means the number without its negative. The dictionary says: the magnitude of a real number without regard to its sign.

So |-3|= 3 and -3= -3

Determine the value of K that would make this expression a perfect square
Mumz [18]

Answer: k=9/4

Step-by-step explanation: We can do this by finding a number that adds up to 3 when multiplied by 2. The best way to do this is to use ((b^2)/4) which can usually find you the number for a perfect square based on b, which we have. So, 3^2 / 4 =9/4, meaning k=9/4. We can check:

>x^2 +3x +9/4

> (x+3/2)(x+3/2)

Perfect square.

2x+14=22 what is the solution
Kruka [31]

2x+14=22

Move +14 to the other side. Sign changes from +14 to -14.

2x+14-14=22-14

2x=8

Divide by 2 for both sides.

2x/2=8/2

Cross out 2 and 2 , divide by 2 and becomes: 1*1*x=x

x=4

Answer: x=4

Determine the slope of the line
prisoha [69]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope of the line by using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  where ( x1,y1) and (x2,y1) are points on the line

Using the points  (0,-4) and  (2,0)

m = ( 0 - -4)/ ( 2 - 0)

   = ( 0+4)/( 2-0)

   = 4/2

    = 2
