The absolute value
returns the "positive version" of a number.
In other words, if the number is positive, it remains positive; if the number is negative, it changes sign.
So, if we want
, we want the "positive version" of x to be 9.
This can happen in two ways: if x is already 9, then its absolute value is still nine. If instead x=-9, its positive value will be 9 again.
In formula, we have

because

The correct answer would be: 6x+5y=3. I am not entirely sure, but that's what I believe is the correct answer.-Hope this helped!
When you have an equation that has variables and you know the value of those variables, just plug it it. So plugging the vaules we get
Just evaluating we get 4
Answer:
• x = 9
• y = 6√2
Step-by-step explanation:
The right triangles are all similar, so the ratios of hypotenuse to short side are the same:
27/x = x/3
x^2 = 81 . . . . . multiply by 3x
x = 9 . . . . . . . . take the square root
Then y can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:
x^2 = y^2 + 3^2
81 - 9 = y^2 = 72 . . . . . subtract 9
y = √72 = 6√2 . . . . . . .take the square root
The values of x and y are 9 and 6√2, respectively.
Answer:
280 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To change radians to degrees, we can use the conversion factor
180/pi
14 pi/9 * 180/pi
Canceling like terms
14/9 * 180
280 degrees
