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.

1: -5 = 3m + c
2: -2 = 0 + c

From equation 2, we knew c = -2
So we sub into equation 1 and got the value of m

-5 = 3m - 2
m = -1

The equation of line is y = -x - 2

You are making a scaledrawing of a room using a scale of1 inch : 4 feet.a. The room is 14 feet by 18 feet. Find itsdimensions in
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

a. 3.5 inches by 4.5 inches

b. 1.5 inches

c. Divide 48 inches by 2 and multiply 1 inch by 12 to get a scale of 1 : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale is a representative fraction showing the relationship between length on a drawing and actual length.

i.e scale = \frac{length on a drawing}{actual length}

 scale = 1 inch : 4 feet

a. The dimensions in the drawing can be determined as;

1 inch : 4 feet implies an inch on the drawing equates 4 feet on actual length.

\frac{14}{4} = 3.5 inches

\frac{18}{4} = 4.5 inches

Dimensions on drawing is 3.5 inches by 4.5 inches.

b. The length of the sofa is 6 feet, its length on the drawing is;

\frac{6}{4} = 1.5 inches

c. To enlarge the scale so as to double the dimensions of the drawing, we have;

12 inches = 1 feet

4 feet = 4 × 12 = 48 inches

given scale = 1 inch : 48 inches

Thus, divide 48 inches by 2 and multiply 1 inch by 12.

scale = 12 inch : 24 inch

scale = 1 : 2

To double the dimensions of the drawing, the scale required is 1 : 2. This implies that a unit measure on the drawing is synonymous to 2 measures on the actual reading.
