I think this question is asking for the closest number to 500,000, which is 533,736. I don't know how to show work for this, except for saying this number is about 33,000 away from 500,000 which is the closest out of 429,455, 441,689, 533,736, and 550,198.
The absolute value is basically the distance from zero, and distance is ALWAYS positive. After you removed your negatives, you need to just compare the values. For example. The smallest absolute value between -27 and 19 is 19. Hope this helped!
H = hrs she worked
p = phone calls she answered
h x 10 + p x .25 = maggies earnings
Part A
h x 10 + 60 x .25 = 115
Part B
h x 10 + 15 = 115 (multiplied 60 x .25)
h x10 = 100 (subtracted 15 from each side of the equation)
h = 10 (divided 10 into each side)
Part C
10 hrs
Hope this helps
Answer: x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5(x+4)-3=(x-2)
1.5x+6)-3=4.5x-9
1.5x+3=4.5x-9
+9 +9
1.5x+12=4.5x
divide 1.5x and 4.5
12=3x
/3 /3
x=4
19.25x Hope this helped you....
