An absolute value means something distance from 0, so |8| = 8 because the distance of 8 from 0 is 8. However the |-8| still equals 8 because the distance from -8 to 0 is 8
So with that in mind, we know that |-4| is 4 because the distance -4 is from 0 is 4
So we have 4*4 = 16
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if we're estimating ,we're going to round up to 8 since you can multiply that easier. 25 times 8 is 200 so estimation will be around 200
Answer:
Option b, c and e are wonderful approaches to solve the problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
Option (b) is appropriate this is because the option is talking about Simple random sampling where random universities are chosen to remove bias.
Option (c) is correct because this is an example of Stratified sampling where two homogenous groups (private and public universities are considered) and samples are chosen at random to remove bias
Option (e) is correct because this again is an example of Simple random sampling where 60 random STEM majors are chosen at random.
Standard form is another way of saying slope-intercept form. The equation you have there is in point-slope form, so we must convert this to slope-intercept form to get our final answer.
In point-slope form (y - k = m(x - h)) k is the y-value, h is the x-value, and m is the slope. All we must do is change your equation's form into standard form, or slope-intercept form which looks like this: (y = mx + b), where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Convert this equation y + 1 = 2/3(x + 4) into standard/slope-intercept form.
y + 1 = 2/3(x + 4)
y + 1 = 2/3x + 2.666 Here we multiplied 2/3 by x and 4 since x + 4 is in parenthesis next to 2/3.
y + 1 - 1 = 2/3x + 2 2/3 - 1 Now we want to get y by itself so the form will look like y = mx + b, so we subtract the 1 from both sides of the equation. (2 2/3 is a mixed fraction that is equal to 2/3*4.)
y = 2/3x + 1 2/3
This is our final answer since it is in the standard, or slope-intercept form. Hope this made sense! If you have any questions please ask.
Let's go shape by shape!
The area of a rectangle can be calculated as follows:
where L = length and W = width
The area of a trapezoid can be calculated as follows:
where b1 and b2 = lengths of the base and H = height of the shape
The area of a parallelogram can be calculated as follows:
where B = length of the base and H = height of the shape
