Answer:
True. The absolute value produces a positive value, but then when you negate that value, it would always be negative. What's important is we're not taking the negative of the number being absolute valued itself, but rather we're taking a negative of the result.

Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
$1.25 = 125 cents.
$42 = 4200 cents
Tickets sold at 75 cents = x
Tickets sold at 125 cents = y
x + y = 40
75x + 125y = 4200
Multiply the first equation by 75
75x + 75y = 3000
75x + 125y = 4200
Subtract the the second equation from the first.
75x + 75y = 3000
- 75x + 125y = 4200
-------------------------------
0 - 150y = - 1200
Divide both sides by - 150
-150y/-150 = -1200/-150
y = 8
Substitute y = 8 into the first equation
x + y = 42
x + 8 = 42
x = 42 - 8
x = 34
34 tickets were sold for 75 cents
8 tickets were sold for $1.25
Let t is the amount of time that the gas is leaking (hour), g is the total of the gas leak.
g = 3t.
Josephine travels 32500+78000 yards at 60 mph
=110500yards
=62.78miles
time = distance/spped
time = distance/60
time=62.78/60
time=1.05 (1 hour 5 mins)
Marcus travels 78000(2)(square) +32500(2)
= 84500yards
=48 miles
time = distance/speed
time=48/45
time=1.07 (1 hour 7 mins)
a)Josephine arrives first
b)she arrives earlier by 2 mins.
