Answer:
Absolute Value
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute Value is very useful in finding the distance between two points on the number line. The distance between any two points a and b in the number line is
|a-b| or |b-a|.
Let x and y be the two numbers. We have:

Subtract the first equation from the second to get

And deduce

The two numbers are 3 and 11.
Answer:
(1, 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = - 3x + 5 → (1)
y = 4x - 2 → (2)
Substitute y = 4x - 2 into (1)
4x - 2 = - 3x + 5 ( add 3x to both sides )
7x - 2 = 5 ( add 2 to both sides )
7x = 7 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into (2) for corresponding value of y
y = (4 × 1) - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2
Solution is (1, 2 )
When adding fractions with even denominators, you will not get a whole number, there will be a 1/2. When adding fractions with odd denominators there will be a whole number.
2. x = 1/4 ( 0.25)
4. y = 122, x = 42
6. x = 63, y = 8
8. is missing
10. 13.5 cm
12. x = 10.6
14. x = 5.45
