The absolute value of 15.3 is the opposite of 15.3?​

Mathematics
1 answer:
prohojiy [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

No. The absolute value of 15.3 is 15.3, not the opposite.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value makes any number its positive form. For example -2 in absolute form is 2. So 15.3 in absolute form is still positive 15.3.

A researcher found a study relating the value of a car, y, to the age of the car, x. When researchers looked at the association
vredina [299]

Answer: c) About 16% of the variation in value of the car is explained by a linear relationship with the age of the car.

e) The correlation coefficient, r, is 0.397.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Coefficient of determination (r²) between two variables, age of car (x) and value of car (y) = 0.158

Correlation of determination (r²) of 0.158 = (0.158 × 100% = 15.8% of the variation between the two variables can be explained by the regression line). Hence, about 16% of the variation between age and value of car can be explained by the linear relationship.

Coefficient of correlation (r) = sqrt(r²) = sqrt(0.158) = 0.397

Ryan bought fishing gear, they cost 51.50,14.99,and 5.79. The sales tax was calculated by multiplying the total cost of the fish
wlad13 [49]

Answer: 76.28 approximately 76

Step-by-step explanation:

Ryan bought fishing gear for 51.50, 14.99 and 5.79.

Total fishing gear bought will be the addition of the 3 fishing gear.

51.50 + 14.99 + 5.79= 72.28

The sales tax is the multiplication of the total fishing gear by 0.05

= 72.28 × 0.05

= 3.614 which is approximately 4

Amount paid by Ryan will be

Total fishing gear + Sales tax

= 72.28 + 4

= 76.28 approximately 76.

Following the recommended steps for solving equations, what should be your first step in solving the given equation?
Free_Kalibri [48]
To solve equations, you isolate the variable you are solving for on one side and everything else on the other side.

The first step to solving this equation is to combine like terms.
Combining like terms means to add up all terms that have the same variable(s) and exponent.

If no exponent is shown, then a 1 exponent is implied. The reason why we don't show a term raised to the first power is that it doesn't have any effect on the term.

I see three terms with the x variables. We can combine them. Why? Because they all have the same variable and exponent.

I'll rearrange the left-hand side to combine all the terms with the x variable.

Now we have -3 + 2x - 4x - 2x = -6
Combine all terms that have the x variable.

-3 + 2x - 4x - 2x = -6
-3 - 4x = -6

Now we have -3 - 4x = -6
What can we do now to isolate the x variable on the left-hand side?
For starters, we can add 3 to each side of the equation.
That way the -3 term will disappear.

-3 - 4x + 3 = -6 + 3
-4x = -3

Last step.
The x variable is being multiplied by the -4. If we reverse that operation
we can get the value of x.

-4x / -4 = 3 / -4
x = 3/-4 or x = -0.75

Use the point-slope form linear equation given.
Agata [3.3K]

y-3=3(x+1)

opening the bracket

y-3=3x+3

y=3x+3+3

equation of the line in the form y=mx+c;

y=3x+6

therefore gradient=3

parallel lines have same gradient therefore gradient of the other line is 3

y--3/x-0=3

y+3=3(x-0)

y+3=3x-0

y=3x-3.
