Explain what absolute value is

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fed [463]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Absolute Value describes the distance of a number line from 0 without considering which direction from 0 the number lies. The absolute value of a number is never negative. For example the absolute value of -5 is 5.

The absolute value is NEVER negative.

If the circumference of a circle is 84.5 ft, find the radius.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

13.448, rounded off: 13.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

r=\frac{C}{2\pi }

Where r = radius, C = circumference.

r=\frac{84.5}{2\pi } =13.448 = 13.5 ft

HELP PLZ WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! find the arrithmetic means in the given sequence<br> -3,?,?,?,93
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an arithmetic sequence is

aₙ = a₁ + d(n - 1)

where aₙ is the number of the term in the sequence (in order from first term where n = 1, to second term where n = 2, to third term where n = 3, etc) a₁ is the the first term in the sequence, and d is the arithmetic difference or means.  This is what we are looking to solve for.  

In our sequence we have the first term, -3 (where n = 1) and the fifth term, 93 (where n = 5).  If we fill in what we have, the only unknown is d, our arithmetic difference (means) between each number in the sequence.

Because we have the fifth term, we can write our standard form to fit our needs:

a₅ = a₁ + d(n-1).  Therefore,

93 = -3 + d(5 - 1) and

93 = -3 + d(4) so

96 = 4d and

d = 24

Our arithmetic difference (means) is 24.  Let's test it on a few values of n.  Let's look for the second, third, and 4th terms, and then try it out for n = 5 to make sure the 5th term, using our arithmetic sequence with d = 24 works and we do, in fact, find the fifth term to be 93.

Testing n = 2

a₂ = -3 + 24(2 - 1) so

a₂ = -3 + 24(1)  and

a₂ = 21.  Second term is 21 (Notice that difference between -3 and 21 is 24)

Testing n = 3

a₃ = -3 + 24(3 - 1) so

a₃ = -3 + 24(2) and

a₃ = 48 - 3 and

a₃ = 45 (Notice the difference between 21 and 45 is 24)

Testing n = 4

a₄ = -3 + 24(4 - 1) so

a₄ = -3 + 24(3) and

a₄ = 72 - 3 and

a₄ = 69 (Notice the difference between 45 and 69 is 24)

Testing n = 5 (and it better come out as 93 or we did something wrong!)

a₅ = -3 + 24(5 - 1) and

a₅ = -3 + 24(4) so

a₅ = 96 - 3 so

a₅ = 93 (Phew!)  ; )

For what value of p will the pair of linear equations have infinitely many solutions (p-3)x + 3y = p , px+ py = 12
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer: p = 6


Step-by-step explanation:

HI !


 px + 3y - ( p-3)=0


a₁ = p , b₁ = 3 , c₁ = - (p-3)


=====================


12x + py - p=0


a₂ = 12  , b₂ = p , c₂ = -p


since , the equations have infinite solutions , 


a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂


p/12 = 3/p =  p-3/p



--------------------------------------


p/12 = 3/p


cross multiply ,


p² = 36


p = √36

 p = 6


for the value of p = 6 , the equations will have infinitely many solutions

Use the commutative property of multiplication to identify which expression is equivalent to 6(2)(x).
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
The commutative property is when you change the order but not the answer. To better understand what they are asking you, let's let x=1- 6 * 2 * 1=12; Answer A wouldn't be right because there are no 6,2, or x's. Remember you just change the ORDER not the GROUPING so Answer B is wrong too. Now Answer C and Answer D are left. Now you just need to look at the signs. 6(2) just means 6 TIMES 2 so pick the option with multiplication. So your answer is C. Hope I helped!
