This means that the number is positive.
The absolute value is the distance away from 0 the number is.
So 1's absolute value would be 1, yet -5's absolute value would be 5.
So the number that's equal to its absolute value is positive, and the one that's not is negative.
So if you subtract 2 from the positive number, it must turn negative.
So 1 is a number that satisfies these conditions.

Answer:
50 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The side lengths in a 30-60-90 triangle have the ratios 1 : √3 : 2. The longest side is 2 times the length of the shortest side.
In this geometry, that means the length of the escalator is 2 times its height, so is ...
x = 2(25 ft)
x = 50 ft . . . . . distance a person travels
(6(x^2-1))*((6x-1)/(6(x+1))
(6((x+1)(x-1)))((6x-1)/(6(x+1))
(6(x-1))*(6x-1)/(6)
(x-1)(6x-1)
6x^2-x-6x+1
6x^2-7x+1
Answer:
22.35 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance is always a positive unit, so distance traveled (d) = 15 miles
Time (t) = 0.3 hours
Time (t) = 0.3 * 60 = 18 minutes
(1 hour = 60 minutes)
Velocity (v) = ?
The formula of distance is: d = v*t
=> v = d/t = 15/18 = 0.83 miles/minute
we can also calculate velocity is meter/sec, for that
1 minute = 60 sec
=> 18 mins = 18*60 = 1080 sec
1 mile = 1609.34 meters
=> 15 miles = 15 * 1609.34 = 24,140 m
hence,
v = 24,140/1080 = 22.35 m/s
