Answer:
The equation is not linear
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given the equation

Express y in terms of x:

The linear function must of form

where m and b are real numbers.
Your function is not of this form, so this is not a linear function.
if a b 9 are in GP
b÷a = 9 ÷ b
b^2 = 9a
if a - 1 b 9 are in AP
2b = a+8
b = a+8÷2
substitute
b is equal to a + 8 by 2 in b square equal to 9 a
(a+8÷2)^2 = 9a
a^2+16a+64 = 36a
a^2 -20a +64 =0
(a-16) (a-4) =0
a= 16 or a=4
when a=16 b= 12
when a=4 b= 6
Value of a and b are given above
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
|-6+8|
Add/subtract the numbers: -6 + 8 = 2
= |2|
Apply the absolute value rule: |a| = a, a ≥ 0
= 2
