The distance of it away from zero cannot be a negative distance, distance is always positive therefor the absolute value will always be positive.
Short answer: no, absolute value is always positive
I hope this helps :)
2.5y + 3x = 27
5x - 2.5y = 5
Align the variables to make solving this easier.
2.5y + 3x = 27
-2.5y + 5x = 5
You can see that the 2.5y and -2.5y cancel each other out. Then add the 3x and 5x, and 27 + 5.
3x = 27
5x = 5
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 4
Now input that x into one of the equations to get y.
2.5y + 3(4) = 27
2.5y + 12 = 27
2.5y = 15
y = 6
The answer to this system of equations is x = 4, y = 6. (4, 6)
Answer:
yes it would change since pop sticks are lighter than blocks are.
Answer:
C. cot theta
Step-by-step explanation:
(csc theta -cot theta )/(sec theta -1)
csc = 1/ sin
cot = cos / sin
sec = 1 / cos
Let x = theta
(1/ sin x -cos x / sin x )/(1/ cos x -1)
Getting a common denominator in the denominator and combining terms
(1- cos x)/ sinx / ( 1 - cos x) / cos x
(1- cosx) (1- cosx)
----------- ÷ ------------
sinx cos x
Copy dot flip
(1- cosx) cosx
----------- * ------------
sinx 1 -cos x
Cancel like terms
cos x / sin x
cos / sin = cot
cot x
cot theta
