Answer:
|-3| = 3 and -|-4| = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function changes the sign to positive, if it isn't already. The usual rules of arithmetic and logic apply to these statements.
|-3| = 3 (true) and -|-4| = -4 (true) ⇒ this statement is true
|-3| = 3 (true) and |-4| = -4 (false) ⇒ this statement is false
-|3| = 3 (false) and |4| = 4 (true) ⇒ this statement is false
|-3| = 3 (true) and -|4| = 4 (false) ⇒ this statement is false

A compound "and" statement is only true if <u>all</u> of the parts of it are true.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the length of the hypotenuse of this triangle. The length of one of the legs of the triangle is 3" and that of the other leg is 4".
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem: x^2 = 3^2 + 4^2, or 25
Thus, the length x is +√25, or 5.
x = 5
The weight of each cabbage is not given.
I'll assume that each cabbage weighs p pounds.
Now, we know that Yasmin bought 6 cabbage each weighing p pounds. To know the total weight, we will simply multiply the number of cabbages by the weight of each as follows:
Total weight = 6 * p = 6p pounds
Hope this helps :)
Solve the equation:
5 3
x – —— = – ——
7 7
5
Add —— to both sides, so you get x isolated at the left-hand side:
7
5 5 3 5
x – —— + —— = – —— + ——
7 7 7 7
3 5
x = – —— + ——
7 7
Now, add those fractions at the right-hand side of the equation:
– 3 + 5
x = —————
7
2
x = —— <——— this is the answer (first option: 2/7).
7
I hope this helps. =)
