All you have to do is put an absolute value sign around all the numbers. The operation sign does not change.
Ex:
|15|+|15|=|30|

Draw the segment PQ with endpoints P(-2, -1) and Q(2,4) on the coordinate plane. Then find the length and midpoint of PQ.

TiliK225 [7]

The graph of the line segment PQ is attached. To find the length, we have to use distance formula which is

$d = \sqrt{ (x_{2} -x_{1} )^2 + (y_{2} - y_{1} )^2 }$

$PQ = \sqrt{ (2-(-2))^2 + (4- (-1))^2 } = \sqrt{ (2+2)^2 + (4+1)^2 }$

$PQ = \sqrt{16+25} = \sqrt{41}$

To find the midpoint,we have to use the formula

$( \frac{x_{1}+ x_{2} }{2} ,\frac{y_{1}+ y_{2} }{2} ) = (\frac{-2+2}{2} , \frac{-1+4}{2} )$

$= ( \frac{0}{2} , \frac{3}{2} ) = (0 , \frac{3}{2} )$

Kyle soles 18 of 24 puzzles in a puzzle book. he says that he can use an equivalent fraction to find the percent of puzzles in t

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

He solved 75% of the puzzles!

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, let's look at our fraction 18 out of 24. We can see that they are both even numbers, so at worst, we can divide the entire fraction by two. However, they have a GCF of six, so we will use that.

18 3

---- divided by 6 = ----

24 4

Now that we have the fraction 3/4, we can turn that into a percentage!

3/4 is 0.75. To get the percentage, we multiply that by 100--now we have 75%.

Line A is represented by the following equation: x + y = 2

Orlov [11]

Answer:

$ax+ay=k; a\ne0, k\ne2a$ ; line D in the options.

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of equations has no solutions if the two lines are parallel. A quick way to create a parallel line is to solve for y, put it in slope-intercept form. Else, as long as the cofficient of x and y are in the same ratio (in this case 1:1), the two lines are parallel, you just have to be careful not to pick the same line again!

The condition $a\ne 0$ makes sure you are still getting lines (else you would get rid of both x and y); the condition $k\ne 2a$ makes sure you're not picking line A again, just written in a different form.
