Angelique says finding the absolute value of a number is as same as finding the opposite of the number. For example, |-5 | = 5.

Explain her error.*

Her error is that the outcome of an absolute number can NEVER be negative. For example, if it was | 1 | it would NOT be equal to -1. It would still be 1. However, if it was | -1 | the answer would be 1. The outcome always has to be a positive number. Hope this helps have a great day!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The aboslute value of a number is how far it is from zero, so the answer can never be a negative number.</em> The <em>absolute value of negative five is positive five. </em>The <em>absolute value of positive five is postive five.</em> If <em>Angelique</em> was to do the <em>opposite value of positive five, she would answer negantive five, which is incorrect.</em>

Hope this helps!

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

  a) V = 4w²h

  b) SA = 4w² +10wh

  c) SA = 4w² +37.5/w

  d) C = 40w² +225/w

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant formulas are ...

  V = LWH

  base area = LW

  lateral area = H(2(L+W))

__

a) The length is 4 times the width, so the volume is ...

  V = (4w)(w)(h)

  V = 4w²h

__

b) The total surface area is the sum of the base area and the lateral area:

  SA = base area + lateral area

  SA = (4w)(w) + 2h(4w +w)

  SA = 4w² +10wh

__

c) The volume is 15 m³, so the height in meters in terms of the width in meters is ...

  15 = 4w²h

  h = 15/(4w²)

Then the surface area is ...

  SA = 4w² +10w(15/(4w²))

  SA = 4w² +37.5/w

__

d) The equation we have for surface area has one term for base area and a second term for lateral area. We can apply the cost factors to those terms to get the cost of materials:

  C = 10(4w²) +6(37.5/w)

  C = 40w² +225/w

I can barely see the majority of the questions
i cant do all but to multiply fractions, you just multiply the numerator and the denominator together
so 3 2/3 x 6
change 3 2/3 to an improper fraction
9/3 x 6/1 = 27/3 which is 9/1 reduced
10 x 1 2/3 is 10/1 x 5/3 = 50/3
