This means that the number is positive.
The absolute value is the distance away from 0 the number is.
So 1's absolute value would be 1, yet -5's absolute value would be 5.
So the number that's equal to its absolute value is positive, and the one that's not is negative.
So if you subtract 2 from the positive number, it must turn negative.
So 1 is a number that satisfies these conditions.
Answer:
60 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance apart = 100
Rate of travel. :
Anthony = 12 mph
Cleopafda = 8 mph
Using the relation :
Speed = distance / time
Distance = speed * time
If they leave at the same time, travel time Can be represented as x
Anthony's distance + Cleopafda distance = total distance
12x +. 8x = 100
20x = 100
x = 5
Hence, they both traveled for 5 hours before meeting.
Distance covered by Anthony :
Speed * time
12 mph * 5h = 60 miles
Anthony must travel. For 60 miles.
Answer:
common ratio=0.5, a1= 0.08
Step-by-step explanation:
r=a3/a2
r=a4/a3
compare both we get:
a3/a2=a4/a3
subtitute a2=0.04 and a4=1
a3/0.04=1/a3
(a3)^2=0.04*1
(a3)^2=0.04
taking square root in both sides
a3=0.02
For r, r=a3/a2
subtitute a3 and a2 above
r=0.02/0.04
r=0.5 common ratio
For a1
r=a2/a1
0.5=0.04/a1
a1=0.04/0.5
a1=0.08
