Question 1. -29 + |-43| = __ (Please explain all of the steps you used to solve this question)

Question 2.
What is absolute value? How do I find the absolute value of |-43| I know the answer is 43, but I forgot how you get that.

The first answer will get brainliest!

Question 1: 14

The absolute value of negative 43 is 43 and if you do -29 plus 43 or also 43-29, you get 14.

Question 2: Basically absolute value precisely means "non-negative". In other words the absolute value in a number' distance from 0. (But remember that distance is always positive!) To find the absolute value of -43, you find the distance that -43 is from 0. Since distance is always positive, the absolute value of -43 is 43.

step-by-step explanation:

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
