George placed the numbers -1/2 , 8/9 , 0.2 and on the numberline . Which of the numbers is furthest from zero ?

1 answer:

7 0

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

1) A scuba diver dives beneath the surface of the water 34 feet. He swims up 13 feet closer to the surface, then swims back down

Nataliya [291]

1. 0 - 34 + 13 - 5 = -26.....26 ft below the surface

2. y = 15x + 50
220 = 15x + 50
220 - 50 = 15x
170 = 15x
170/15 = x
11 1/3 = x......he worked 11 1/3 hrs.......not sure about this...because it does not specify how many visits he made...but if this was just for 1 visit, then he worked 11 1/3 hrs
