As we know these two lines mean | | a modulus sign. The modulus symbol is sometimes used in conjunction with inequalities. A modulus sign in simple words just ignores the sign and gives us the absolute value.
For example in this case the modulus gives us 4 x 2 - 3. As you can see the modulus sign has ignored the original negative signs with the numbers.
So after evaluating the equation the answer comes out to be 8 - 3 which is equal to 5.

y² - 7y + 6
y = -3
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: (-3)² - 7(-3) + 6
- Exponent: 9 - 7(-3) + 6
- Multiply: 9 + 21 + 6
- Add: 30 + 6
- Add: 36
Answer:
Charlie had 1340 more stamps than Ryan
Step-by-step explanation:
altogether, they have 1608 stamps.
Because if Charlie has 5 times more plus Ryan's portion equals 6 portion total.
Divide 1608 by 6 and that equals 268
Meaning that Ryan has 268 stamps.
To confirm, subtract 268 from 1608
this equals 1340.
268 * 5 = 1340
