Let the number be x
Then the absolute value of the number from -2 should be 4


So either


Or




[tex] <B>The numbers are 2 and -6</B> [/tex[
They are four units away from -2 on the number line
Answer:
34 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the problem we use the compound formula given by:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
where:
A=future amount:
p=principle
r=rate
A=1000000, r=11.6%, n=40
plugging the value in the formula we get:
1000000=p(1+11.6/100)^40
solving for p we get:
1000000=80.6432p
p=12400.300
rounding to the nearest 1000 we get
p=$12000

-- They're losing employees . . . so you know that the line will slope down, and
its slope is negative;
-- They're losing employees at a steady rate . . . so you know that the slope is
the same everywhere on the line; this tells you that the graph is a straight line.
I can see the function right now, but I'll show you how to go through the steps to
find the function. I need to point out that these are steps that you've gone through
many times, but now that the subject pops up in a real-world situation, suddenly
you're running around in circles with your hair on fire screaming "What do I do ?
Somebody give me the answer !".
Just take a look at what has already been handed to you:
0 months . . . 65 employees
1 month . . . . 62 employees
2 months . . . 59 employees
You know three points on the line !
(0, 65) , (1, 62) , and (2, 59) .
For the first point, 'x' happens to be zero, so immediately
you have your y-intercept ! ' b ' = 65 .
You can use any two of the points to find the slope of the line.
You will calculate that the slope is negative-3 . . . which you
might have realized as you read the story, looked at the numbers,
and saw that they are <u>firing 3 employees per month</u>.
("Losing" them doesn't quite capture the true spirit of what is happening.)
So your function ... call it ' W(n) ' . . . Workforce after 'n' months . . .
is <em>W(n) = 65 - 3n</em> .
The constant rate = 20 ft / 5 seconds = 4 feet per second
Find the chart that shows an increase of 4 feet for every second the balloon travels.
