The absolute value is always positive:
For example, the absolute value of -5: | - 5 | = 5 and also the absolute value of 5 : | 5 | = 5
P = - 1 1/4
The absolute value of point P.
| P | = | - 1 1/4 | = 1 1/4
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
7-(-4) is 11. You must make the subtraction symbol in the middle to addition, since you have 2 negatives. Two negatives = postive. So after you do that it would be 7+4=11
Hope this helped!
19+17+4+4=44
56-44=12
20-12=8
No, and she needs 8 more dollars.
Answer:
Dimensions of the rug = 13 ft × 26 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the room = 21 ft × 34 ft
Area of the room = 21 × 34 = 714 ft²
Cynthia wants to leave a uniform strip of floor around the rug.
Let the width of the rug = x ft
Then the dimensions of the rug will be = (21- 2x)ft × (34 - 2x)ft
Area of the rug = (21 - 2x)×(34 - 2x) square feet
338 = (21 - 2x)×(34 - 2x)
338 = 714 - 68x - 42x + 4x²
4x² - 110x + 714 - 338 = 0
4x² - 110x + 376 = 0
2x² - 55x + 188 = 0
2x² - 47x - 8x + 188 = 0
x(2x - 47) - 8(x - 47) = 0
(x - 4)(2x - 47) = 0
x = 4,
For x = 23.5 area of the rug will be negative.
Therefore, x = 4 ft will be the width of the rug.
Dimensions of the rug will be 13 ft × 26 ft.
I do not see the letter z in the equation, if there is no mistake the z would be 0
