Absolute value of 7. Any real numbers in the absolute sign would equal to the positive value.

<u>D</u><u>e</u><u>f</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>i</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>o</u><u>n</u>

\large \boxed{ |x|  =  \begin{cases} x  \:  \:  \:  \: (x \geqslant 0) \\  - x \:  \:  \:  \: (x < 0) \end{cases}}

If we substitute x = 7 in. Answer by using the definition of absolute value. Note that we only substitute x = 7 in x and not -x since 7 is greater than 0 and not less than 0.

\large{ |7|  = 7 \:  \:  \:  \:  (x \geqslant 0)}

You may also be wondering what will happen if we substitute x = any negative numbers.

\large{ | - 7|  =  -  ( - 7) \:  \:  \:  \: (x <  0)} \\  \large \boxed{ | - 7|  =  7}

Because -7 is less than 0. We substitute in -x and not x. This is the definition of absolute value. But to understand it easily, any numbers in absolute value have to equal to their positive value.

Conclusion

  • |7| means the absolute value of 7.
  • |7| is 7.
  • |x| is x when x ≥ 0 but -x when x < 0

Let me know if you have any doubts regarding the absolute value through comment!

Answer:

R:  (16, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x, y) be the point R

(x - 10)/2 = 3       and (y + 12)/2 = 7

x - 10 = 6                     y + 12 = 14

x = 16                           y = 2

R:  (16, 2)

Write an equation of the line passing through the point A(8, 2) that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x−7.
Kay [80]

Answer:

y = - 1/4 + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x - 7

Slope = 4

Slope of the perpendicular line = -1/4

Point (8,2)

(b) y-intercept: 2 - (-1/4)(8)

= 2 + 2 = 4

Differentiate y=8x-3
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

dy/dx=8

Step-by-step explanation:

note this differentiating a constant you get zero for that of a function like 8x you would use the index or power of x to multiply the coefficient of the x after substrate 1 from the power of the x putting that in writing for the above question we get

y'=dy/dx=(8*1)x^(1-1) - 0

y'=dy/dx=8x^0

y'=dy/dx=8
