What is the difference between absolute value and opposite numbers?
The absolute value of a number is its distance from 0 on a number line. For example, variable x's absolute value would be written as "| x |". Numbers are opposites when they have the same absolute value but they have opposite signs. The expression -10 can be read as "the opposite of 10" or "negative 10".

A caterer charges a setup fee of $50, plus $20 per person. How much will the caterer charge if 35 people attend the party, and the customer has a coupon for $100 off the total?
n=number of guests total= (50+(n x 20))-100 when n=35 total= (50+(35 x 20))-100 = (50+700)-100 = 750-100 = $650

Which sum is farther from zero, the sum of 101 and 85, or the sum of -98 and -104?
The sum of -98 and -104 is farther from zero than the sum of 101 and 85. If you add -98 and -104, you will get -202 and if you add 101 and 85, you'll get 186. That is closer to zero than -202.

A certain small factory employs 98 workers. Of these, 10 receive a wage of $150 per day and the rest receive $85.50 per day. To the management, a week is equal to 6 working days. How much does the factory pay its workers per week?
This means that 88 earn 85.50 a day = 7524 to these workers total daily + 1550 for the other 10. = 9074 to all 98 workers each day. Now multiply this by 6 9074 * 6 = 54444 a week

The cost of a rope at a hardware store depends on its length in feet and its price per foot. Write a variable expression using 4 variables to represent the cost of 2 ropes that have different lengths and prices per foot. Explain what each variable represents. Use the expression to evaluate the total cost to buy a 28-foot rope at $.23 per foot and a 36-foot rope at $.39 per foot.
Answer : pl+ cf , where p is the cost per foot, l is the length in feet of one rope and c is the cost per foot and f is the length in feet of the other rope ; $20.48

Your family is going on a vacation. Your destination is 880 miles away. If your family is driving at an average of 55 miles per hour for 8 hours a day. The car gets 28 miles per gallon of gas. Your car can hold 10 gallons of gas. If you start your vacation on a full tank of gas, how many times will your family have to stop for gas in order to arrive to your destination?
Since you have a full tank at start you can take 280 miles off the 880 mile destination amount, so you only really have 600 miles you need to buy gas for. so 600/280 = 2.14 Which means you need to stop 3 times, because you can't stop 2.14 times. in words, you drive 280 miles, stop, drive another 280, stop, drive another 280, stop and then drive 40 miles and arrive at your destination. Answer: 3 times
