What is the definition of Absolute value and how do you find Absolute Value?

Absolute Value. The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line. For example, -7 is 7 units away from zero, so its absolute value would be 7.

Absolute value means "distance from zero" on a number line. To represent the absolute value of a number, we use a vertical bar on either side of the number. Let's try an easy problem to fully understand what absolute value means.

Let's say we are asked to find the absolute value of 4 and -4. The absolute value of 4 would be 4 because it's 4 units away from zero. The absolute value of -4 will be 4 also because it's 4 units away from zero.

Remember that if you're asked to find the absolute value of a negative number, the absolute value will always be the positive version of that number.

H(x)=-x^2+10x-16 Find the 2 x-intercepts
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

x=2   x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x)=-x^2+10x-16

Set this equal to 0

0=-x^2+10x-16

Divide by -1

0/-1=x^2-10x+16

0=x^2-10x+16

Factor

What two numbers multiply to 16 and add to -10

-2*-8 = 16

-2+-8 = -10

0=(x-2) (x-8)

Using the zero product property

x-2=0   x-8=0

x=2   x=8

These are the x intercepts

Of the Students that attended Roosevelt Elementary 6/8 of the school play a sport. Of the students are playing a sport 3/5 of th
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

\frac{9}{20} students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that of the students that attended Roosevelt Elementary 6/8 of the school play a sport. Of the students are playing a sport 3/5 of the students are also involved in the drama club.

To find the students are both play a sport and a part of the drama club, we need to find 3/5 part of 6/8 as:

\text{Students who play a sport and a part of the drama club}=\frac{6}{8}\times \frac{3}{5}

\text{Students who play a sport and a part of the drama club}=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{5}

\text{Students who play a sport and a part of the drama club}=\frac{3\times 3}{4\times 5}

\text{Students who play a sport and a part of the drama club}=\frac{9}{20}

Therefore, \frac{9}{20} students play sport and part of the drama club.

Translate the phrase into algebraic expression seven more than twice Jose’s height using the variable J to represent Jose height
Mkey [24]

Answer:

<em>2j+7</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Phrase Into Algebraic Expression</u>

If a problem is correctly phrased, it should be easily translated into algebraic language by following simple and concrete rules.

We have the phrase:

<em>7 more than twice Jose's height.</em>

Usually, we first deal with products and divisions before sums and subtractions because of the natural order of mathematic operations.

In the given phrase, the '7 more' part is left to the end and we start with the 'twice' part because it's a product.

Since we are using the variable j for Jose's height, then twice Jose's height is 2j.

Now we finish the expression by adding 7: 2j+7

Thus, the translation to algebraic expression is: 2j+7
