I have to solve the equation:
[tex] |4 \sqrt{2} - 6 | + |2 \sqrt{10} - 6| [/tex]
The first thing I tried is simply removing the modules, it seemed like the most logical solution and this is the answer I got, but it wasn't any of the options:
[tex]4 \sqrt{2} + 2 \sqrt{10} + 12[/tex]
The second thing I tried is putting both equations in one module and sum the first one with the second one in parentheses like this:
[tex] |4 \sqrt{2} - 6 + (2 \sqrt{10} - 6 | = \\ = |4 \sqrt{2} - 6 + 2 \sqrt{10} + 6 | = \\ = 4 \sqrt{2} + 2 \sqrt{10}[/tex]
But this wasn't in the answers either.
After I checked, the correct answer was:
[tex]2 \sqrt{10} - 4 \sqrt{2} [/tex]
So I was wondering where does the minus come from?

It is in a module and between the modules, there's a plus and even if that plus somehow turns into a minus when it goes inside the modules, which I'm not aware of, it would still turn into a plus because it is in a module ;-; Or I'm just st*pid, I don't know. ​

Answer 1

Think back to the definition of absolute value:

• If x ≥ 0, then |x| = x.

• If x < 0, then |x| = -x.

In other words, the absolute value always returns a positive number. So if x is positive, leave it alone; but if it's negative, then you have to negate it to get a positive number back.

This means that you cannot simply reduce |x - y | to x - y because you need to consider the possibility that x - y may be negative, in which case |x - y | would reduce to -(x - y) = y - x.

In this case,

|4√2 - 6| = -(4√2 - 6) = 6 - 4√2

because 4√2 < 6, which you can determine by comparing both of these numbers as square roots:

4√2 = √16 √2 = √32

6 = √36

and √32 < √36 because 32 < 36.

Similarly,

|2√10 - 6| = 2√10 - 6

because

2√10 = √4 √10 = √40

6 = √36

So ultimately,

|4√2 - 6| + |2√10 - 6| = (6 - 4√2) + (2√10 - 6) = 2√10 - 4√2

2. Find the perimeter of a triangle with vertices A(–3, 5), B(–3, 2), and C(1, 2).

Answers

Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 units

The perimeter of a triangle is 12 cm.

To find the perimeter of the triangle.

What is triangle?

A triangle has three sides, three vertices, and three angles. The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.

Use the distance formula to find the length between point A and B, B and C, C and A. Then add all three lengths together to get the perimeter.

 Distance = √ ( (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 )

Points A and B:

d = √(-3 +3)2 + (2 - 5)2

d = √ 0 + 9

d = √9

d = 3

Points B and C:

d = √ (1+ 3)2 + (2 -2)2

d = √ 16 + 0

d = √ 16

d = 4

Points C and A:

d = √ (-3 - 1)2 + (2 -5)2

d = √ 16 + 9

d = √ 25

d = 5

Perimeter=  3 + 5 + 4 = 12

So,  the perimeter of a triangle is 12 cm.

Calculate the compound interest a saleswoman would have to pay if she borrows
$54 000 for 9 years at 12% per annum compound interest.​

Answers

Given:

Principal = $54,000

Time = 9 years

Rate of compound interest = 12% per annum.​

To find:

The compound interest.

Solution:

The formula for amount is:

[tex]A=P\left(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

Where, P is principal, r is the rate of interest in decimal, n is the number of time interest compounded and t is the number of years.

The interest is compounded annually, so [tex]n=1[/tex].

Substituting [tex]P=54000,\ t=9,\ n=1,\ r=0.12[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]A=54000\left(1+\dfrac{0.12}{1}\right)^{1(9)}[/tex]

[tex]A=54000\left(1.12\right)^{9}[/tex]

[tex]A=149746.252902[/tex]

[tex]A\approx 149746.25[/tex]

The amount after 9 years is $149746.25.

Now, the compound interest is:

[tex]C.I.=A-P[/tex]

Where, C.I. is compound interest, A is amount and P is principal.

[tex]C.I.=149746.25-54000[/tex]

[tex]C.I.=95746.25[/tex]

Therefore, the compound interest is $95746.25.

A. liquid
B. long-term

The correct answer is B. Long-term.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Zach has bought a car for $ 20,000 paying a down payment of $ 5,000 and monthly payments of $ 450 per month for 5 years, he will be paying a total of $ 32,000 for that car (5,000 + 450 x 12 x 5).

An easy way to figure out how a shape has undergone a ridge transformation (meaning a transformation only in location and not size) is to compare corresponding points on the figure.

In this figure, use point (C) to describe the transformation. Point (C) is located at (-2, 4). However, its corresponding point (C') is located at (0,0). To go from (-2, 4) to (0,0) one has to add (2) units to the (x-coordinate) and subtract (4) units from the (y-coordinate). Therefore, the transformation can be described as the following,

The value of the segment CD is 11 units for the given line segment.

A line segment is a fundamental geometric object that represents a portion of a straight line with defined endpoints. It is a finite portion of a line that connects two distinct points. The endpoints of a line segment are specific points that mark its boundaries.

From the given image the value of x will be calculated as,

CD + DE = 12

(2x - 9 ) + ( x - 9 ) = 12

3x - 18 = 12

3x = 30

x = 10

The measure of the segment CD is,

CD = 2x - 9

CD = 2(10) - 9

CD = 20 - 19

CD = 11
