Answer:

C: I and III only.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers x and y such that:

-y

And we want to determine which of the following conditions must be true.

First, let's examine the third condition. We have:

y>0

To see if this is true, let's try a negative value for y. So, let's use -7. This will give:

-(-7)

Simplify:

7

This is saying we need a number less than -7 and greater than 7.

This is impossible. So, y <em>must be</em> greater than 0.

Therefore, Condition III must be true.

Next, let's see this compound inequality visually.

Picture the following number-line:

<----------(-y)----------0----------y---------->

Whatever y is, -y is just y on the negative side.

Now, since our condition is that -y<x<y, this means that our x can be anywhere between -y and y. Namely:

<----------(-y)----------0----------y---------->

To determine our correct condition, let's picture x anywhere on the bolded lines. I'm just going to put x here...

<----------(-y)-------(x)--0----------y---------->

Now, remember the alternative definition for absolute value. Namely, the absolute value of x is also the <em>distance</em> from 0 to x. And this distance is always positive.

Since our x is between -y and y, our distance from 0 to x will always be less than the distance from 0 to either y.

Therefore, Condition I is also true.

Let's try an example. Let's let y = 9. So, -y=-9. And let's let x be between 9 and -9, say, -2. So:

<---(-9)-----(-2)--0--------(9)------>

We can see that:

|-2|=2\stackrel{\checkmark}{

Also, this example counters Condition II, as our x can indeed be negative if we desire it.

Algebraically, if we have a negative x such that:  

-y

We can divide everything by -1 to obtain:

y>x>-y

We can flip this to get:

-y

Which is our original inequality. So, Condition II does not need to be true.

So, the two conditions that <em>must</em> be true is I and III.

So, our answer is C.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1km = 1000m

5a. 5.768km = 5768m = 57.7m

5b. 9.039km = 9039m = 90.4m

5c. 8.48km = 8480m = 84.8m

5d. 17.685km = 17685m = 17.7m

5e. 17.658km = 17658m = 17.7m

To round to the nearest 100m just divide by 100 and then round it off. like 57.68=57.7m because 8 is more than 5 so 6 becomes 7 to one decimal.

Rule is applied for all the other questions too.

Andre and Diego were each trying to solve 2x+6=3x-8 Describe the first step they each make to the equation
avanturin [10]
The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.

If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:

2x+6=3x-8
-3x -3x

-x+6=-8
-6 -6

-x=-14
/-1 /-1

x=14

Evaluate f (x) = 2 x for x = -4, 0, and 5.
aleksklad [387]
The function f(x) is defined in to different ways depending on the value of X. When x is < 5, use the expression 2x - 1 to evaluate the function When x is ≥ 5, use the expression x2 - 3 for example f(1) = 2(1) - 1 = 1 f(10) = (10)2 - 3 = 97

Please help me with 8, 9, and 10 thanks! Show work too
Harrizon [31]
In 8, 9, 10, all the triangles are similar, meaning corresponding sides have the same ratio.

8. hypotenuse / (short side) = 25/x = x/9
  x² = 25*9 = 5²×3²
  x = √(5²×3²) = 5*3 = 15

9. (long side) / (short side) = x/7 = 9/x
  x² = 7*9
  x = √(9*7) = 3√7

10. (short side) / (long side) = x/48 = 48/64
  x = 48²/64 = 36
