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 system for tracking ships indicated that a ship lies on a hyperbolic path described by 5x2 - y2 = 20. the process is repeated
malfutka [58]
Answer:
The ship is located at (3,5)

Explanation:
In the first test, the equation of the position was:
5x² - y² = 20 ...........> equation I
In the second test, the equation of the position was:
y² - 2x² = 7 ..............> equation II
This equation can be rewritten as:
y² = 2x² + 7 ............> equation III

Since the ship did not move in the duration between the two tests, therefore, the position of the ship is the same in the two tests which means that:
equation I = equation II

To get the position of the ship, we will simply need to solve equation I and equation II simultaneously and get their solution.

Substitute with equation III in equation I to solve for x as follows:
5x²-y² = 20
5x² - (2x²+7) = 20
5x² - 2y² - 7 = 20
3x² = 27
x² = 9
x = <span>± </span>√9

We are given that the ship lies in the first quadrant. This means that both its x and y coordinates are positive. This means that:
x = √9 = 3

Substitute with x in equation III to get y as follows:
y² = 2x² + 7
y² = 2(3)² + 7
y = 18 + 7
y = 25
y = +√25
y = 5

Based on the above, the position of the ship is (3,5).

Hope this helps :)

A. What is the volume, in cubic feet, of the box in the diagram?
Allisa [31]

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The number of boxes that can fit in the cargo hold of the truck is 54.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

The volume of the box = Volume of the cube = a³ = (2.50)³ = 15.625 ft³

The volume of cargo hold = 7.50 × 7.50 × 15 = 843.75 ft³

Now, the number of boxes that can fit in the cargo hold of the truck will be,

Number of boxes = (Volume of truck container)/(Volume of box)

                              = 843.75/15.625

                              = 54

Hence, the number of boxes that can fit in the cargo hold of the truck is 54.
