Answer: B. |x-100| = 25
Explanation:
Draw out a number line. Mark 75, 100 and 125 on the number line as points A, B, and C in that order. Don't worry about the spacing.
The value of x represents where the train is. So if we had say x = 85, then it would be at location 85 on the number line. Writing |x-100| is the distance from x to 100. The absolute value ensures the distance is never negative. We want this distance to be 25 because after traveling 25 cm, the switch is turned, and the train goes the other way.
What do you need help with? it helps us to know the question!
0.32. Because you need to find the area, as size 8*8/2 then divide by 100 to get the decimal.I hope this helps.
Answer: 9 tilapia
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of 6:20 for tilapia to catfish means that for every six tilapia, there are 20 catfish in the pond.
If there are 30 catfish, use direct proportion to find out the number of tilapia:
6 : 20
x : 30
Cross multiply:
20x = 180
x = 180 / 20
x = 9 tilapia
In both cases,
(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)
So we have
10.
(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)
11.
(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)
