X+y=11

x is longer than y
x>y
x is 4 less than 4 times y
x=-4+4y

sub back
x+y=11
-4+4y+y=11
-4+5y=11
add 4 to both sides
5y=15
divide both sides by 5
y=3

sub back
x=-4+4y
x=-4+4(3)
x=-4+12
x=8

the pieces are 8ft and 3ft

|-13\ = -(-13)<br> True False?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

This statement is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value is how far the number is from zero, so how many steps will it take on a number line to get from that particular number to zero?

Since you can't have negative steps, The -13 in absolute value would be 13.

The -(-13) is the same thing as saying  -1 ( -13 ). Since negative times a negative is a positive, 13=13 is a true statement.

16. It is the only even number in the group. I know this because:

25/2 = 12.5

16/2 = 8

49/2 = 24.5

63/2 = 31.5

81/2 = 40.5

:) Hope I helped
