B)13 if you add 13+18+31 so that means babs is 13 and julia is 18

ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago

4 0

Babs=x
Julia=x+5
X+x+5=31
Solve for x
2x=31-5
2x=26
X=26/2
X=13 years old (babs age)

First, determine if the boundary line should be dotted or solid. In this case, it should be dotted because the symbol is less than not less than or equal to. This leaves you with options B or D. Now, to see if it should be shaded up or down, test it by substituting any point, let's say the origin (0,0), to see if that point is a solution to the equation. If it is, you shade that side of the graph, but if it's not, you shade the other side of the graph.

0 is less than (-3/4)(0) + 2

0 is less than 2.

Because 0 is actually less than 2, the statement is correct and you shade below the line

Additive inverse of −2, additive identity of −5, additive inverse of 3, multiplicative identity of 19, and multiplicative invers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Additive inverse of −2

the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to 'a', yields zero. This number is also known as the opposite (number), sign change, and negation.
So the Additive inverse of -2 is 2. ∴ -2+2=0

b) Additive identity of −5

Additive identity is the value when added to a number, results in the original number. When we add 0 to any real number, we get the same real number.
-5 + 0 = -5. Therefore, 0 is the additive identity of any real number.

c) additive inverse of 3

Two numbers are additive inverses if they add to give a sum of zero. 3 and -3 are additive inverses since 3 + (-3) = 0. -3 is the additive inverse of 3.

d). multiplicative identity of 19

an identity element (such as 1 in the group of rational numbers without 0) that in a given mathematical system leaves unchanged any element by which it is multiplied
Multiplicative identity if 19 is 1 only, since 19 x 1 = 19.

e) multiplicative inverse of 7

Dividing by a number is equivalent to multiplying by the reciprocal of the number. Thus, 7 ÷7=7 × 1⁄7 =1. Here, 1⁄7 is called the multiplicative inverse of 7.

d) | 11-5|×|1-5|
