Furthest from 0, so I am going to take the absolute value of these numbers. The absolute value will tell us how far away from 0 these numbers are.
|-1/2| = |- 0.5| = 0.5
|8/9| = |0.88| = 0.88
|0.2| = 0.2
so the number furthest from 0 is 8/9
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's at the same time of the day, the ratio between the height of the person and the shadow they cast will stay the same. So the man's height to shadow ratio is 6:8 = 3:4. The son's height to shadow ratio would be the same so x:4 = 3:4 therefore his height is 3 feet.
Since 2 croissants = $3 we can work out that 1 croissant = $1.50
Multiply $1.50 by 31 and we get $46.50
Therefore 31 croissants is $46.50
The answer is no solution.
Explanation: x+4 = x+8
-x -x
4 cannot equal 8
Answer is No solution
