Change the value from negative to positive

Or

Change the value from positive to positive

Step-by-step explanation:

It is very simple

Any number's absolute value should be positive

Let's say absolute value of 3 - >answer is 3

Answer:

In math students think that the function just removes negative signs, and actually that is basically what happens...

BUT !!! the definition that you want is that absolute value is a measure of how far (distance) you are from ZERO.... and note that distances are not negative...

If you run out of gas one mile in front of behind a gas station, you have to travel "one mile" you don't walk "negative one mile"...

forward one mile or backward one mile are both "one mile" just in different directions

63. Write the slope-intercept form of an equation of the line
wariber [46]

Answer:

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, 4)

m = \frac{4+3}{-1-2} = \frac{7}{-3} = - \frac{7}{3}, thus

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 1, 4), then

4 = \frac{7}{3} + c ⇒ c = 4 - \frac{7}{3} = \frac{5}{3}

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + \frac{5}{3} ← equation of line
