Answer:
Let x represent the number from the sentence.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x) + 2(1/x) = 20/3
2x + 2/x = 20/3
multiply both sides of the equation by 3x
6x + 6 = 20x
6x - 20x + 6 = 0
6x - 18x - 2x + 6 = 0
6x(x-3 -2(x-3) = 0
(6x-2 = 0 or x-3 = 0
6x = 2 or x = 3
x = 2/6
x = 1/3
Since x represented the number
Therefore x = 1/3 or 3
The absolute value of a number is the distance from point to the origin. Since Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground, then the distance from point -12 on the number line to the origin is 12 (distance cannot be negative).
Thus, |-12|=12 and Paula is at a distance of 12 feet.
Answer: correct choice is C
If the sample is random, it is not valid.
Answer:
a(85) = -1033
Step-by-step explanation:
Explicit Arithmetic Sequence:
an = a1 + d(n-1)
d = -12 (by -37 + 25)
a(85) = -25 + -12(85-1)
a(85) = -1033
