Lets solve the equation first:
<span> 0.5 – |x – 12| = –0.25
</span>= 1/2 - |x - 12| = -1/4
= 2 - 4<span>|x - 12| = -1
= 4|x - 12| = 3
= |x - 12| = 0.75
positive case, x >= 12
x - 12 = 0.75
x = 12.75
negative case, x < 12
x - 12 = -0.75
x = 11.25
So those are the two solutions.
These apply:
</span>1.) The equation will have no solutions.
2.) A good first step for solving the equation is to subtract 0.5 from both sides of the equation.
<span>3.) A good first step for solving the equation is to split it into a positive case and a negative case.
</span><span>5.) The negative case of this equation is x – 12 = –0.75.</span>
Answer:
supplementary and straight
Step-by-step explanation:
1. angle D and angle B add up to make a 180 degree angle so they are supplementary.
2. A and C each equal 180 degrees (straight angle= 180 degrees)

No . . . while the difference represents the absolute magnitude between two numbers . . . for example . . .
<em>The difference between 5 and 2 is . . . 3</em>
<em>The difference between 6.4 and 9.5 is . . . 3.1</em>
. . . there is still the chance that the difference may be zero . . . in which case the difference is neither positive nor negative
. . . so in short . . . the answer is . . . <u><em>NO</em></u>
