<em /><em>PURPLE MARBLES=P
WHITE MARBLES=W
</em>First, write out an equation showing the number of purple marbles.
P=5W-6
Then, write out the main equation.
W+P=96
W+5W-6=96
Add 6 to both sides.
W+5W=102
6W=102
Divide both sides by 6
W=17
Now that we know there are 17 white marbles, we can go back to the equation about how many purple marbles there are.
P=5W-6
Plug in the value for W, which is 17.
P=5(17)-6
P=85-6
P=79
To make sure your answer is correct, check your work by plugging in the values for P+W=96.
79+17=96
Answer: There are 79 purple marbles.
To answer this question, we need to know what absolute value is in the first place. <u><em>ANSWERS ARE AT THE BOTTOM.</em></u>
Absolute value represents how far something is from 0 in a number line.
For example, lets take 4.
4 is 4 units away from 0 on the number line, so the absolute value of 4 is 4.
Now lets look at another example, -4. -4 is also 4 units away from 0, just in the other direction. However, when calculating absolute value, we do not care about the direction. Therfore, the absolute value of -4 is also 4.
Now let's look at your problem.
You want the <em>absolute value</em> of 0 and -4/5
<u><em>Following the same principle above about the distance from 0, here are your answers:</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
<u><em>Absolute value of 0</em></u><u><em>: </em></u><em>0</em>
<em></em>
<u><em>Absolute value of -4/5</em></u><u><em>: </em></u><em>4/5</em>
The slope of the line is: m=(5-0)/(-3-2)=-1
y=-x+b
find out b by using a point: 0=-2+b, b=2
so the equation of the line is y=-x+2
it is dotted, so they should be an equal sign.
the shaded part is to the right, above the line, so it is a >
the inequality is y>-x+2
