Answer: positive
The absolute value of every nonzero integer is a positive integer.
Examples are
|-2| = 2
|7| = 7
The absolute value represents distance which can never be negative. Negative distance does not make sense.
Answer:
6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
9 + 4 = 13 divide by 2 = 6.5 is your answer.
The two numbers are 0.85 and 0.15
if you add them together you get 1, 0.85+0.15=1
and if you subtract them you get 0.7, 0.85-0.15=0.7
In order to move a number that is multiplied or divided by the variable<span>, you must do the inverse to both sides. That means, if the number is multiplied, you must divide it by both sides. If it's divided, you must </span>multiply<span> it by both side. steps so that you can apply them to more complex </span>problems<span>.</span>
OK. I did it. Now let's see if I can go through it without
getting too complicated.
I think the key to the whole thing is this fact:
A radius drawn perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord.
That tells us several things:
-- OM bisects AB.
'M' is the midpoint of AB.
AM is half of AB.
-- ON bisects AC.
'N' is the midpoint of AC.
AN is half of AC.
-- Since AC is half of AB,
AN is half of AM.
a = b/2
Now look at the right triangle inside the rectangle.
'r' is the hypotenuse, so
a² + b² = r²
But a = b/2, so (b/2)² + b² = r²
(b/2)² = b²/4 b²/4 + b² = r²
Multiply each side by 4: b² + 4b² = 4r²
- - - - - - - - - - -
0 + 5b² = 4r²
Repeat the
original equation: a² + b² = r²
Subtract the last
two equations: -a² + 4b² = 3r²
Add a² to each side: 4b² = a² + 3r² . <=== ! ! !
