In your own words, explain to me what is absolute value? Make sure to talk about the definition of it, how you find it, and how

it's different from just plotting an integer on a number line. You must provide 3 sentences or more.

Answer:

It's a function that associates a real number x with a positive real number using the flowing definition: If the number is not negative (so either positive or 0) the absolute value is x. If x is negative, the absolute value is -x.

This means that to find the absolute value of x you must first determine if x is negative or not, and if it is, multiply it by -1. If it isn't, leave it as it is.

Since the absolute value is a function (of a given number), you can't just plot that number in the number line but the function (so in this case absolute value must be taken first.

The absolute value of x is never negative, so given the absolute value of x we can't determinate if x was positive or negative (if x =/ 0) before the absolute value was taken.

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

broad sense heritability = 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Variables

phenotypic variation (Vp)

genotype variation (Vg)

environment variation (Ve)

broad sense heritability (H)

Step 2: Formulas:

H = Vg / Vp

Vp = Vg + Ve

Vg = Vp - Ve

Step 3: Given data

Vp = 20

Ve = 5

Step 4: Computation

Vg = 20 - 5 = 15

H = 15 / 20

H = 0.75

Hope this helps!

16+5x=8x-5 What would the variable be?
11111nata11111 [884]
16+5x =8x-5

Reorder the terms
16+5x = -5+8x
Solving for variable for x

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add -8x to each side of the equation.
16+ -3x = -5 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 5x + -8x=-3x
16+-3x = -5 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0
16+-3x = -5 + 0
16+ -3x = -5

Add -16 to each side of the equation
16+-16 + -3x = -5 + 16

Combine like terms: 16+ -16 = 0
0 + -3x =-5 + -16
-3x = -5 + -16

combine like terms: -5 + -16 = -21
-3x = -21
Divide each side by -3
x=7
