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.

Janet’s car insurance payment decreases by $20 each year. Which expressions represent the total change in her payment,in dollars
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

C.  5•(-20)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the insurance payment for the car follows a certain pattern that can be represented through an expression. The payment is decreasing by $20 every year. As we don't know the total payment amount per period, so we cannot calculate how much is paid per period/year for insurance but we can calculate the rate at which this payment is decreasing.

Change in payment = t * (-20)

The above expressions can be used to calculate the amount of change in payment i payment is decreasing by a constant $20 every year, after t years.

So, if we want to calculate the change in payment after say 5 years, we can replace t with 5 in the equation and calculate the change,

Change in payment = 5 * (-20)

Change in payment = - $100

Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height

so old triangle we have  1/2 x b x h = 48

new triangle has base 3 times as long and height is half as long
 so we would get:

1/2 x (3B) x (1/2H) = area

rewrite as 1/2 x 3/2 x b x H = area

divide by original are os 1/2 x b x h and you end up with 3/2

so new area = 3/2 x old area

new area = 3/2 * 48 = 72 square inches
