Simplifying √196 before doing the multiplication:
( √196 ÷ 7 ) × √48
= ( (√4 × √49) ÷ 7 ) × √48
= ( (2 × 7) ÷ 7 ) × √48
= 2√48
Simplifying √48:
= 2 × √16 × √3
= 2 × 4 × √3
= 8√3
which is irrational because it's a square root
Not necessarily. the absolute value of a number is that number's distance from 0 on a number line. if your taking the absolute value of a negative value, what you stated would be true. however, what if you took the absolute value of a positive number? hope that answers your question.
40000000+20000+3000+30+2 zero's dont matter
9y - 5x = 20
or, (9y - 5x) / 20 = 1
or, 9/20 y - 1/4 x = 1
compare with x/a + y/b = 1
you'll get
x intercept (a) = -4
y intercept (b) = 20/9
