The student is not correct.
Absolute value means distance from zero
|-9| = 9
|4| = 4
Since 9 is greater than 4,
|-9| is greater than |4|
In other words, -9 is further from zero then 4
Answer:
70.7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle formed by home plate, first base, and second base is an isosceles right triangle with hypotenuse 100 ft. Then the side length (base-line distance between bases) is (100 ft)/√2 ≈ 70.7 ft.
___
For an isosceles right triangle with side lengths 1, the hypotenuse can be found from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...
hypotenuse = √(side² + side²) = √(1²+1²) = √2
Then the diamond distances satisfy the proportion ...
hypotenuse/side = 100 ft/(base distance) = √2/1
or ...
base distance = (100 ft)/√2 ≈ 70.71068 ft
Answer:
she has 4 quarters because 4 quarters equals $1 and she has 12 nickles because 12 × 5 =60
A semicircle's perimeter is half the perimeter of the complete circle.
The perimeter of the complete circle is its circumference which is found by the equation: πD.
Then the equation of the perimeter of the semicircle is πD/2
In this case D = 24 in, then the perimeteir is π (24in/2) = 12π in ≈ 37.7 in
Answer: The exact length is 12π inches and the approximate length is 37.7 inches
1:15 pm + 5 minutes =1:20 PM You add 5 minutes because your watch is slow then subtract 3 minutes because you thought the watch was 3 minutes fast. real time is 1:17 PM
1:20 pm - 3 minutes = 1:17 PM
