Absolute value describes how far away a number is from 0
The absolute value of a number is always positive even if you are looking at the absolute value of a negative number.
Examples
The absolute value of 6 = 6
The absolute value of -6 = 6
50 states, 4 start with W (Washington, West Virgina, Wisconsin, Wyoming)
So its 8%
Sn=sum of the n terms of the geometric sequence.
a= the first term
r=the common ratio
n=numbers of terms.
Sn=a[(1-r^n)/(1-r)]
In this case:
a=-3
r=a₂/a₁=15/-3=-5
n=9
S₉=-3[(1-(-5)⁹) / (1-(-5))=
S₉=-3(1+1953125)/6)=
S₉=-3(1953126/6)=
S₉=-3(325521)
S₉=-976563
Answer: A. -976563
Answer:
B. 41.8° is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
Length of Eduardo's flight path = 273 miles
Length of Paul's flight path = 357 miles
Distance between their destinations = 238 miles.
Now, using the law of cosines, we get,
i.e. 
i.e. 
i.e. 
i.e. 
i.e. 
i.e. θ = 41.8°
Hence, the angle between their flight paths is 41.8°.
Answer:
maximum height is 4.058 metres
Time in air = 0.033 second
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the equation height h
h = -212t^2 + 7t + 4
What is the toy's maximum height?
Let us assume that the equation is a perfect parabola
Time t at Maximum height will be
t = -b/2a
Where b = 7 and a = - 212
t = -7/ - 212 ×2
t = 7/ 424 = 0.0165s
Substitute t in the main equation
h = - 212(7/424)^2 + 7(7/424) + 4
h = - 0.05778 + 0.115567 + 4
h = 4.058 metres
Therefore the maximum height is 4.058 metres
How long is the toy in the air?
The object will go up and return to the ground.
At ground level, h = 0
-212t^2 + 7t + 4 = 0
212t^2 - 7t - 4 = 0
You can factorize the above equation and pick the positive time t since time can't be negative
Or
Since we have assumed that it's a perfect parabola,
Total time in air = (-b/2a) × 2
Time in air = 0.0165 × 2 = 0.033 s
