Answer:

x = -15 or 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simplify |x| - 3 = 15 to |x| = 15 because we can add 3 on both sides due to -3 being outside of the absolute value bars. Next, we can say that x is either 15 or -15 because of the absolute value (|15| is equal to 15 and |-15| is also equal to 15).

X = -15 or 15
The absolute value of either of those is 15 subtract 3 and it = 12

The price of a mobile phone decreased from $375 to $250 during a clearance sale. What is the percent of decrease in the price?

Tresset [83]

So decrease is 375-250=75

so convert 75/375 to percent
percent means part out of 100 so
x/100=x%

divide 125/375=0.3333/1

multiply by 100/100=33/100=33%

the answer is 33% or B

You fly a hot air balloon 3.5 miles above the ground. What is the measure of BD⌢, the portion of Earth that you can see? Round y

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$\Delta s \approx 334.545\,m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that Earth is a sphere, the following trigonometric diagram is constructed and presented below. The central angle is given by this inverse trigonometric equation:

$\theta = 2\cdot \cos^{-1} \left(\frac{r}{r+h} \right)$

$\theta = 2\cdot \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{4000\,mi}{4000\,mi+3.5\,mi} \right)$

$\theta = 4.792^{\circ}$

The distance of the portion of Earth that can be seen is:

$\Delta s = \frac{4.792^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}\cdot (2\pi)\cdot (4000\,mi)$

$\Delta s \approx 334.545\,m$

Justin has $7.50 more than Ava and Emma has $12 less than Justin. Together, they have a total of $63.00. How much money does eac

Semmy [17]

Justine > Ava > Emma
12 - 7.5 = 4.5
x + (x+4.5) +(x+12) = 3x + 16.5 = 63
63-16.3 = 56.7
56.7/ 3 = 18.9
A: Emma has $ 18.9 Ava has $23.4 Justin has $30.9
