Which of the following statements describes the absolute value of a number "a"?

1 answer:

5 0

This is a tricky question as for me. But I think, I'd go with C) The distance from the number "a" to 0 on a number line can be represented by the absolute value of a number "a." As it's sounds better in practical way.

If T is the midpoint of SU find the values of x, ST and SU.

Nitella [24]

Answer: The required values are

x = 12 units, ST = 60 units and SU = 120 units.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that T is the midpoint of SU, where

ST = 5x and TU = 3x + 24.

We are to find the values of x, ST and SU.

Since T is the midpoint of SU, so we get

$ST=TU\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=3x+24\\\\\Rightarrow 5x-3x=24\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=24\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{24}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=12.$

So, the value of x is 12.

Therefore,

$ST=5\times12=60$

and

$SU=5x+3x+24=8x+24=8\times12+24=96+24=120.$

Thus, the required values are

x = 12 units, ST = 60 units and SU = 120 units.

If two points on a line are A(10, −3) and B(12, 9), the rise is __________, and the run is __________, so the slope of the line

kherson [118]

The rise is the difference in y-coordinates:

y₂ - y₁ = 9 - (-3) = 12

The run is the difference in x-coordinates:

x₂ - x₁ = 12 - 10 = 2

The slope is the quotient of rise over run:

m = 12/2 = 6

========================

If two points on a line are A(10, −3) and B(12, 9), the rise is 12, and the run is 2, so the slope of the line is 6.
