Absolute value is simply the distance from zero on a number line. -44 is 44 away from zero, so the absolute value of -44 is
44
Answer:
y=x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Price of boots is represented as x, price of tennis shoes is represented as y.
x-y=44.38
x+y=196.12
Isolate x. (Or y, if you wanted to)
x=y+44.38
x=196.12-y
Set them equal to each other.
y+44.38=196.12-y
Solve for y. Then plug it in to either of the two original equations to find x.
x=120.24
y=75.86
Note: This is assuming that the boots are more expensive than the tennis shoes. If the tennis shoes are more expensive than the boots, then the prices would be switched. I didn't find this clear in your question.
Step 1. Add 6 to both sides
a ≥ 1 + 6
Step 2. Simplify 1 + 6 to 7
a ≥ 7
First draw a line on the smallest number, and one on the largest. then calculate the midpoint (n+1)/2 the value, and draw that line in the middle. calculate upper quartile and lower quartile and draw lines on them. draw a line between the tops of the quartiles and one between the bottom, and from the middle of the lines to the minimum and maximum. sorry if not explained well
