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
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
This is exponential growth, and to my understanding, the format goes:
<em>initial amount (percent growth/ decay)^time</em>
percent growth = (<em>decimal percent + 1)</em>
<em>percent decay = (1 - decimal percent) </em>
Your equation:
1500(1.02)^t
Using the above format, 1500 appears to be the initial amount, which increases by 2% per annum.

Answer:
r = -9/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7/10 = r - (-8/5)
Required
Solve for x
7/10 = r - (-8/5)
We start by opening the bracket
7/10 = r + (- -8/5)
7/10 = r + (8/5)
7/10 = r + 8/5
Subtract 8/5 from both sides
7/10 - 8/5 = r + 8/5 - 8/5
7/10 - 8/5 = r
Solve the fraction by taking their LCM
(7 - 16)/10 = r
-9/10 = r
Reorder the above
r = -9/10
Hence, the value of r is -9/10
