Answer:
The answer is No Solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is absolute value, we know the answer has to be positive, because distance has to be positive. We see it is negative, and that cannot be, so the answer is no solutions.
It's just telling you to multiple like 9×1=9 9×2=18 and so on.
The scale factor that Thea uses to go from Rectangle Q to Rectangle R is equal to 6.
<h3>What is the scale factor from rectangle Q to rectangle R?</h3>
In geometry, the scale factor is a ratio of the resulting length to the initial length. Since the area of the square is equal to the square of its side length, then the scale factor is equal to:
k² = A' / A
k = √(A' / A)
Where:
- k - Scale factor
- A' - Area of the rectangle R.
- A - Area of the rectangle Q.
If we know that A = 2 and A' = 72, then the scale factor is:
k = √(72 / 2)
k = √36
k = 6
Then, the scale factor that Thea uses to go from Rectangle Q to Rectangle R is equal to 6.

Answer:
(a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.
In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.
In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.
In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.
