2-1 reversed is turning it around : 1-2 which equals -1 because there is one left over. B is your answer and hoped I helped!
1) we calculate the area of the circular piece of metal.
area=πr²
area=π(3.5 m)²=12.25π m² ≈ 38.48 m²
2)we calculate the total cost of the circular piece of meta by the rule of three.
$3.25-------------------1 m²
x--------------------------38.48 m²
x=($3.25 * 38.48m²) / 1 m²=125.06$
Answer: 125.06$
We can also calcultate the total cost of the ciucular piece of metal by the ratius.
Ratius=$3.25/1m²
Total cost=ratius * area of the circular piece of metal.
total cost=($3.25/ m²)*(38.48 m²)=$125.06
Answer: $125.06
1.
no, there will never be a negative y-value. <span>y= |x| will always be nonnegative. |x| can be distance x is from 0 and a distance can never be negative.
</span>2.
you can define it as
y = |x| = x if x ≥ 0, -x if x < 0
absolute value can be
interpreted as a function that does not allow negative real numbers,
forcing them to be positive (leaving 0 alone). if the input x is more
than or equal 0, then x stays positive so there is no need to do
anything: "x if x ≥ 0".
if the input is less than 0, then it is an
negative number and needs a negative coefficient to negate the negative:
"-x if x < 0"
example: if x = -3, then it will take the "-x if x < 0" piece resulting in y = -(-3) = 3, which is what |-3| does
if x = 1, it will take the "x if x ≥ 0" piece and just have y = 1 which is what |1| does.
for x = 0, it will take the "x if x ≥ 0" and just have y = 0 which is what |0| does
