Which of the following is equal to the opposite of −45? −(−45) −45 −|−45| −|45|
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

-(-45) and -|45|

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite of a number can also me termed the conjugate of such number. For example, the conjugate (opposite) of a is -a.

Also any value in the modulus sign can either be a negative or positive value. For example |a| can be +a or -a.

According to the question, we are to find the numbers that are equivalent to opposite of -45 i.e which of them are conjugate of -45.

To do this, we are to select the values in the options that will return +45.

Let's look at each option.

For -(-45):

Since the product of two negative sign will give a positive(+), then -(-45) = +45 and hence the value is opposite of -45

For -45:

-45 is a negative value and can never be positive since 45 is not inside a modulus sign. Hence, -45 is not equal to opposite of -45.

For −|−45|, |-45| can only return a positive value since -45 is already in a modulus sign. What the modulus sign will do is convert it to positive value i.e |-45| = 45. Hence -|-45| ≈ -(45) which is not also equivalent to the opposite of-45.

For -|45|:

The value inside modules will return both +45 and -45, hence it can be written as -|45| = -(-45) = +45. This shows that -|45| is also equivalent to the opposite of -45.

Donald has x twenty dollar bills and one ten dollar bill how much money does Donald have
Paha777 [63]
In equation form that would be X20+10. He has X amount of 20 dollar bills, then a 10 dollar bill. We have to multiply X by 20 first, then add that to 10.

A cylinder has a height of 12 inches and a radius of 1.5 inches. What is its voulme? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Use
Lerok [7]

Answer:

It's volume is of 84.78 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder:

The volume of a cylinder with radius r and height h is given by:

V = \pi r^2h

A cylinder has a height of 12 inches and a radius of 1.5 inches.

This means that h = 12, r = 1.5

What is its volume?

V = \pi r^2h = 3.14(1.5)^2(12) = 84.78

It's volume is of 84.78 cubic inches.
