Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
When we want to find difference we have:
-3-(-1)=-2
But distance can not be negative.
Now, we need to count distance between numbers -3 and -1 on the number line.
So we have from -3 to -2, one place and from -2 to -1 one place it is 2 places.
So distance is 2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The line is parallel to the x axis, so its slope is 0
m = 0
the y intercept is -2.5
the line doesn’t intercept the x axis because is parallel to it
Let no. of pens be x.
Pens : x
Pencils: x+8
Total: 2x+8
Student takes 1 pen and 5 pencils.
Remainder: 2x+8 - 5 -1 = 2x+2
2x+2 = 26
2x= 24
x = 12 (original no. of pens)
x+ 8 = 20 (original no of pencils)
There are 12 pens at first and 20 pencils.
After 1 pen is taken, 11 pens are left.
After 5 pencils are taken, 20-5=15 pencils are left.
5≤x≤9 it can also be reversed as 9≥x≥5 which is the same thing
Answer:
d). 3/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest common factor of 18 and 30 is 6, so we divide top and bottom of the fraction by 6:
18/30
= (18/6) / (30/6)
= 3/5.
