Answer:

The absolute value of a number is how far "that number" is from 0 on the number line.

So if you were asked to fins the absolute value of 5 it would be 5, because it is 5 places away from 0 on the number line.

If you were asked to find the absolute value of -5 it would still be 5, because -5 is still 5 places away from zero on the number line.

If you are asked to find the absolute value of 0 it is zero, because 0 is = to 0.

Hope this helps Buddy!

Vika [28.1K]

you have a quadratic equation that can be factored, like x2+5x+6=0.This can be factored into(x+2)(x+3)=0.

So the solutions are x=-2 and x=-3.

2. 

<span><span>1. Try first to solve the equation by factoring.  Be sure that your equation is in standard form (ax2+bx+c=0) before you start your factoring attempt.  Don't waste a lot of time trying to factor your equation; if you can't get it factored in less than 60 seconds, move on to another method.
</span><span>2. Next, look at the side of the equation containing the variable.  Is that side a perfect square?  If it is, then you can solve the equation by taking the square root of both sides of the equation.  Don't forget to include a ± sign in your equation once you have taken the square root.
3.</span>Next, if the coefficient of the squared term is 1 and the coefficient of the linear (middle) term is even, completing the square is a good method to use.
4.<span>Finally, the quadratic formula will work on any quadratic equation.  However, if using the formula results in awkwardly large numbers under the radical sign, another method of solving may be a better choice.</span></span>

Consider the line y=9x-1.
OLEGan [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope=9

i)

y−y1=m(x−x1)

When line is parallel

y+5=9(x-6)

y+5 = 9x - 54

<h3>59 = 9x-y </h3>

When line is perpendicular

y+5=-1/9(x-6)

9(y+5)= -1(x-6)

9y + 45 = -x+6

<h3>x+9y = -39</h3>

A suncatcher has 6 sections. Each section is in the shape of a parallelogram witha base of 12 cm and a height of 8 cm. What is t
jonny [76]

Answer:

576 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of sections in a suncatcher (n) = 6

Each section is in the shape of a parallelogram.

Base of parallelogram = 12 cm

Height of parallelogram = 8 cm

Now, area of a parallelogram is given as:

Area of parallelogram = Base × Height

Area of 1 parallelogram = 12 cm × 8 cm = 96 cm²

Now, there are 6 parallelogram shaped sections.

So, area of the sections = area of 1 section × total number of sections

∴ Area of 6 sections = 96 cm² × 6 = 576 cm²

Therefore, the total area of the sections of a suncatcher is 576 cm².

Louisa drew a polygon with six sides of equal length. If the perimeter of Louisa's polygon is 95.4 centimeters, how long is each
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

15.9 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

the information we have is:

Perimeter: P=95.4cm

Number of sides of the polygon: n=6

since each side has equal length, we can use the following equation to find the measure of one side of the polygon, the equation for perimeter:

P=nl

where n is the number of sides and l is the length of each side.

So we clear for l and we get:

l=\frac{P}{n}

and subtituting the known values:

l=\frac{95.4cm}{6}\\ l=15.9cm

each side is 15.6 centimeters long
