Answer: Hope this helps!!!

Step-by-step explanation:Absolute Value: You need to find how far away both numbers are from zero, then add these values together to see how far apart these numbers. The absolute value of nine, |-9| is 9, and |12| is 12. This means that the nine is nine spots away from zero, and twelve is twelve spots from zero. This means that the numbers are 20 units from each other.

Distance -9 is from 12 You need to find how much of an increase from nine you need to reach the twelve. So -9 + ? = 12. What number can you add to equal twelve? You can add 20 to make the equation true. (? = 20) The distance from -9 to 12 is a positive 20.

Distance from 12 to -9 This is similar to the previous example. What number can you insert to make the 12 equal the negative nine? 12 - ? = -9. The number would be -20, which means that 12 is 20 spots away from the negative nine, as it took at negative twenty to get us to the negative nine.

Second option: Infinite solutions.

5. Bill will have read the same amount of books as Mandy in:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1. What equation is solved by the graphed systems of equations?

Two linear equations that intersect at the point (-1, -4)=(x,y)→x=-1, y=-4

a. 7x + 3 = x + 3

Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:

7x+3-x=x+3-x

6x+3=3

Subtracting 3 both sides of the equation:

6x+3-3=3-3

6x=0

Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:

6x/6=0/6

Dividing:

x=0 different to the intersection at x=-1, then this is not the equation.

b. 7x − 3 = x − 3

Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:

7x-3-x=x-3-x

6x-3=-3

Adding 3 both sides of the equation:

6x-3+3=-3+3

6x=0

Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:

6x/6=0/6

Dividing:

x=0 different to the intersection at x=-1, then this is not the equation.

c. 7x + 3 = x − 3

Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:

7x+3-x=x-3-x

6x+3=-3

Subtracting 3 both sides of the equation:

6x+3-3=-3-3

6x=-6

Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:

6x/6=-6/6

Dividing:

x=-1 equal to the intersection at x=-1, then this is the equation.

d. 7x − 3 = x + 3

Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:

7x-3-x=x+3-x

6x-3=3

Adding 3 both sides of the equation:

6x-3+3=3+3

6x=6

Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:

6x/6=6/6

Dividing:

x=1 different to the intersection at x=-1, then this is not the equation.

November 28

December 32

Books read by Mandy: y=16+2x

Numbers of months since april: x

May: x=1→y=16+2(1)=16+2→y=18 different to 4 (books read by Bill)

June: x=2→y=16+2(2)=16+4→y=20 different to 8 (books read by Bill)

July: x=3→y=16+2(3)=16+6→y=22 different to 12 (books read by Bill)

September: x=5→y=16+2(5)=16+10→y=26 different to 20 (books read by Bill)

October: x=6→y=16+2(6)=16+12→y=28 different to 24 (books read by Bill)

November: x=7→y=16+2(7)=16+14→y=30 different to 28 (books read by Bill)

December: x=8→y=16+2(8)=16+16→y=32 equal to 32 (books read by Bill)

how many ways can Aileen choose 2 pizza toppings from a menu of 19 toppings if each topping can only be chosen one

alexdok [17]

Answer:

There are 342 different combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, Aileen is choosing toppings for a pizza.

She can choose two.

There are 19 options that can be chosen once.

The first thing we need to do, is find all the "selections".

Here we have two selections:

Topping number 1

Topping number 2.

Now we need to find the number of options for each one of these selections:

Topping number 1: Here we have 19 options.

Topping number 2: Here we have 18 options (because one was already taken in the previous selection)

The total number of combinations is equal to the product between the numbers of options.

C = 19*18 = 342

There are 342 different combinations.

Kind of confused on this question, please help

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

4th option

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 )

y = $\frac{3}{5}$ x - 6 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = $\frac{3}{5}$

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{\frac{3}{5} }$ = - $\frac{5}{3}$

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = - $\frac{5}{3}$ and (a, b ) = (- 2, 5 ) , then

y - 5 = - $\frac{5}{3}$ (x - (- 2) ) , that is

y - 5 = - $\frac{5}{3}$ (x + 2)
