Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

120 is 120 spaces from zero

-130 is 130 spaces from zero

130+120=250

250 spaces from each other

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

You can think of this in different ways. Here are two ways.

1) The distance between any two points on the number line is the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates. Since you will take the absolute value of the difference, it makes no different in which order you do the subtraction.

For points on the number line with coordinates a and b,

distance = |a - b| = |b - a|

Here the coordinates are -130 and 120.

distance = |-130 - 120| = |-250| = 250

distance = |120 - (-130)| = |120 + 130| = |250| = 250

As you can see, the distance comes out the same no matter the order of the subtraction.

distance = 250

2) Just think of what the problem means and do a little calculation.

120 is a positive number, so it is located 120 units to the right of zero.

-130 is a negative number, so it is located 130 units to the left of zero.

To find the distance between the two numbers, think of starting at -130. You need to go 130 units right to reach zero. Then from zero you need to move another 120 units right to reach 120. The total distance is 130 + 120 which equals 250.

distance = 250

What is the answer to this question
Crank
The answer is “c” because the 6% of 5300 is 318 which they gain each year so multiply. 318 x 18 = 5724 + 5300 that they already have is equal to 11,024

HI CAN SOMEONE PLZ HELP ME I HAVE NO CLUE HOW TO DO THIS SOS. THANKS SM!!!❤️❤️❤️
Kitty [74]

Problem 1)

This question is incomplete. It asks us to find something, but doesn't say what to find. It's literally blank after the word "find" which suggests your teacher made a typo. Please get back to me on this. Thanks.

===================================

Problem 2)

Angles GAR and GAT are supplementary because they are a linear pair. They form a straight angle. So we add up the expressions of x for each of these angles, solve for x, and use this to find angle GAR.

(angle GAR) + (angle GAT) = 180

(5x) + (3x+4) = 180

8x+4 = 180

8x+4-4 = 180-4

8x = 176

8x/8 = 176/8

x = 22

Note: now that I reached this point I realize that this might be the answer to problem 1; however, I'm not 100% sure because of the incomplete problem.

Use this x value to find angle GAR

angle GAR = 5*x

angle GAR = 5*22

angle GAR = 110

Unfortunately this answer isn't listed. I'm thinking your teacher made another typo.

===================================

Problem 3)

Answer: angle GAR and angle ABQ are corresponding angles.

Thankfully this answer is listed. Corresponding angles are angles that are on the same side of the transversal line and they are either both above or below the parallel lines they are next to. In this case, they are both above the parallel line counerparts.

===================================

Problem 4)

Corresponding angles are congruent as long as we have a set of parallel lines. So that means angle ABQ is equal to angle GAR. So angle ABQ is also 110 degrees

===================================

Problem 5)

angle BAT = angle GAR,  because they are vertical angles

angle BAT = 110

angle BAT = (angle BAD) + (angle DAT)

(angle BAD) + (angle DAT) = angle BAT

(100) + (angle DAT) = 110

angle DAT = 110-100

angle DAT = 10

angle ADB = angle DAT,  because they are alternate interior angles

angle ADB = 10

--------

Final Answer: 10 degrees

charle [14.2K]
Draw the given answers to determine the correct solution.

ΔABE is correct because it is a right triangle through a diagonal
ΔABD is incorrect because it does not go through diagonals.
ΔADH is incorrect because it does not go through diagonals.
ΔACE is incorrect because it does not go through the interior of the cube.

Answer: ΔABE
