Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to realize that the absolute value function will change the sign of its argument only if that argument is negative.
108. |x -7| = x -7 . . . . . true for x-7≥0
x ≥ 7 . . . . makes the statement true
__
1a. When m < 9, the value 6m is less than 54, so 6m-54 < 0. That means the absolute value function changes the sign of its argument:
54 -6m . . . . . simplified form for m < 9
__
1b. |y -x| = y -x . . . when y > x, the argument of the absolute value is positive
Answer:
+10
Step-by-step explanation:
The law of integers states that a negative number divided by a negative integer would result in a positive integer, therefore;
-40 / -4 = 10
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
An easier way to do this is to make the fractions improper fractions.
3 1/6 can be rewritten as 19/6. 1 4/6 can be rewritten as 10/6. (Multiply the denominator by the number at its side, and add it to the numerator).
2 3/6 is 15/6.
Subtract 10/6 from 19/6.
19/6-10/6=9/6.
9/6 is not 15/6, therefore she did not use 2 3/6 yards of fabric.
It's not an irrational number because the decimal is repeating. If it went on forever and never repeated then it would be an irrational number.
I think the error is that Richie thought for a number to be irrational, it just needed to repeat forever.
