Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- The additive inverse of −3 is +3, so 16 − (−3) = 19
- negative 6 over 8 minus negative 1 over 8 = negative 5 over 8; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 5 over 8 equals negative 5 over 8 units
- Because it is 3 units to the left of 2 on a horizontal number line

<em>Comment on the second question</em>
Note that the second question asks for the distance from -6/8 to -1/8. Ordinarily, the distance from A to B would be computed as B - A. In this set of answer choices, it is computed as |A - B|. In the end, the result is the same.
Personally, I would compute the distance between points on a number line by subtracting the left point from the right point. Here, that would also correspond to B - A.

<em>Comment on choosing 'word' answers</em>
In a set of answers like these, one way to choose answers is simply to eliminate the ones that make a false statement. Often, you are left with only the correct answer choice.
For example, the statement "the additive inverse of -3 is -3" is a false statement, so the first two answer choices can be eliminated. Likewise, the statement 16 -(-3) = 13 is false, so that choice can be eliminated. The one remaining answer is the correct one.
Answer: 60
Step-by-step explanation:
5(14-2) x 2/2
5 x 14 - 5 x 2
70-10 x 2/2

70-10 x 1
60 x 1
60
No. y=x would mean it would either be (-2,-2) or (0,0). basically they have to be the same.
The answer is 1/2 I believe
