When we want to find the distance between two integers using the difference, the best way is to plot them on number line. And then count distance between them. For example -3 and -1. But distance can not be negative.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
the first fish tank has 100 gallons of water and 1 gallon is removed every hour which makes 100-h
the second tank has 40 gallons in it and 2 gallons are added every hour which makes 40+2h
after 20 hours the second tank will have more gallons than the first tank
this means that 40+2h would be greater than 100-h since it's also asking you "After how many hours will the first tank have less water than the second?"
Answer:
y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 9 from both sides to cancel it out.
-27=-y/9
/9 /9
-3=-y
We can't have a negative variable, so we divide -1 from both sides.
-3=-y
/-1 /-1\
3=y

To find the zeros of a quadratic fiunction given the equation you can use the next quadratic formula after equal the function to 0:
![\begin{gathered} ax^2+bx+c=0 \\ \\ x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20ax%5E2%2Bbx%2Bc%3D0%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B-b%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bb%5E2-4ac%7D%7D%7B2a%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
