How does knowing the absolute value of an integer help in determining the distance of two ordered pairs?

1 answer:

6 0

Hey there!

The absolute value helps because when you the absolute value is the the distance of a number away from 0. Meaning that if your finding distance it will never be negative.

Finding the distance between the two is subtracting one of the numbers from each ordered pair from each other. Whether the number is negative or positive, you always turn it, or leave it into a positive number because distance is always positive.

Hope this helps !

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

solution given:

principal [P]=$850

time[T]=8years

rate[R]=8%

now

simple interest [S.I.]= $\frac{P×T×R}{100}$ =$ $\frac{850×8×8}{100}$ =$544

Total balance=S.I.+P=$544+$850=$1394.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The 93% confidence interval for the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 325 degrees is (0.3154, 0.5574). This means that we are 93% sure that the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 325 degrees is (0.3154, 0.5574).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
