A publisher claims that the average salary paid at its company is $37,500, but it could differ by as much as $4,500. Write an ab

solute value inequality to determine the range of salaries at this company.
|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500
|x − 4,500| ≤ 37,500
|x − 37,500| ≥ 4,500
|x − 4,500| ≥ 37,500

Answer:

|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500

Step-by-step explanation:

salary - 37,500 can be up  +4500 or as negative -4500

as much as means less than or equal to

We use absolute values to indicate this

|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500

Answer:

|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the new salary paid (In dollars ),

∵ The actual salary = $ 37,500

∵ Maximum difference in salaries = $ 4500

Case 1 : If x > 0

⇒ x - 37500 ≤ 4500 -----(1)

Case 2 : If x < 0

⇒ 37500 - x ≤ 4500

⇒ -(x-37500) ≤ 4500 -----(2)

By combining inequalities (1) and (2),

| x - 37500 | ≤ 4500  ( ∵ |a| < b ⇒ -a < b or a < b )

Which is the absolute value inequality to determine the range of salaries at this company.

FIRST option is correct.

Calculate the velocity of a car traveling in a straight path due east with a distance of 16 meters in 2 seconds. Question 1 opti
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

  E 8 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnitude of the velocity (the speed) is the number of meters divided by the number of seconds. (That's what meters per second means.)

  |V| = (16 m)/(2 s) = (16/2) m/s = 8 m/s

Velocity is a vector quantity, so must include a <em>direction</em> along with the <em>magnitude</em>.

  V = E 8 m/s

If I have a mass of 40g and a volume of 20ml, then what is the density?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

2g/mL^3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find density, we use mass/volume. 40g is the mass and 20mL is the volume. 40/20 is 2, therefore, 2g/mL^3

If 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90° and cosθ = 11/15 , what is the value of sin (90° - θ)?
igor_vitrenko [27]
11/15=0.7333
cos^{-1}(0.7333) =42.83342
sin(90-47.166572) = 0.7333

first, find the numeric value for 11/15
second to find theta, simply do the <em>inverse</em> cos (which is cos^-1) of the first answer.
now you know theta, just do the sin of 90 - theta and that's it!

since you know whatr cos(theta) is, you just take the inverse cos of that number to get theta and 'reverse' cos, essentially. you are just solving for theta, by reversing the cos function with cos^-1
