Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The two parallel bars mean absolute value meaning the positive value of that number. The positive value of -8 is 8. Note that positive number in an absolute value bars reamin the same.

Have a nice day! :D
Answer:
Conjecture : 2xy / ( x + y ) ≤ √xy
Step-by-step explanation:
Harmonic mean of x and y = 2xy/( x + y )
<u>Formulate a conjecture about their relative sizes </u>
we will achieve this by computing harmonic and geometric means
Geometric mean = √xy
harmonic mean = 2xy/( x + y )
Conjecture : 2xy / ( x + y ) ≤ √xy
attached below is the proof
Let
be the number of hours that the waitress works in the evening.
We know for our problem that she works
in the afternoon and that she works <span>1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening, so:
</span>
<span>Since </span>
, we can rewrite our expression:
We can conclude that she works 3.375 hours in the evening, or expressed as a mixed fraction:
hours.
4/7 = y/5019....with y being yes votes
cross multiply
(7)(y) = (4)(5019)
7y = 20076
y = 20076/7
y = 2868 <=== yes votes
total of yes and no votes : 5019 + 2868 = 7887
