Answer:

-|-8| is not the same as positive 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value is always positive, even for the negative numbers.

So in -|-8|, |-8| will be equal to 8, as the absolute value results in a positive number and thus the final result will be negative due to a negative sign outside the bars.

So, - |-8| = - 8

Thus this value is not equal to positive 8.

Numbers on right of 0 are positive. Thus 8 units to the right of 8 will be positive 8.

Opposite of a number has the opposite sign. So opposite of -8 will be +8.

Answer:

(2, 14), (3, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The way these angles are numbered, corresponding angle numbers differ by 4, 8, or 12.

Corresponding angles are ...

Angle 2 and Angle 14 . . . . . . numbers differ by 12

Angle 3 and Angle 7 . . . . . . . numbers differ by 4

_____

If a given angle is Northwest of the intersection, any corresponding angle will also be Northwest of its intersection. Corresponding angles are ...

northwest: {1, 5, 9, 13}

northeast: {2, 6, 10, 14}

southeast: {3, 7, 11, 15}

southwest: {4, 8, 12, 16}

Any pair of numbers from the same set will be corresponding angles.

Please help explanation if possible

poizon [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The given equation is:

y = -2x + 5………………(i)

Comparing the equation with y = mx+c, we get;

m1 = -2

Also another equation of the line which passes through point (-4,2), we get;

(y-2) = m2(X+4)............(ii) { using the formula (y-y1) = m2(x-x2)}

According to the question, they are perpendicular to eachother, So according to the condition of perpendicular lines;

m1*m2 = -1

-2*m2 = -1

or, m2 = 1/2.

Therefore, m2= 1/2.

Now, keeping the value of m2 in equation (ii).

(y-2) = 1/2(x+4)

y = (1/2)x + 4

Therefore, the required equation is: y = (1/2)x + 4.

Hope it helps!
