Answer:

x = 5 or x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute Value Equation entered :

     3|3x-9|=18

Step by step solution :

Step 1: Rearrange this Absolute Value Equation

Absolute value equalitiy entered

     3|3x-9| = 18

Step 2: Clear the Absolute Value Bars

Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.

The Absolute Value term is 3|3x-9|

For the Negative case we'll use -3(3x-9)

For the Positive case we'll use 3(3x-9)

Step 3: Solve the Negative Case

     -3(3x-9) = 18

Multiply

     -9x+27 = 18

    Rearrange and Add up

     -9x = -9

    Divide both sides by 9

     -x = -1

    Multiply both sides by (-1)

     x = 1

    Which is the solution for the Negative Case

Step 4: Solve the Positive Case

(3x-9) = 18

    Multiply

     9x-27 = 18

    Rearrange and Add up

     9x = 45

    Divide both sides by 9

     x = 5

    Which is the solution for the Positive Case

Step 5:  Wrap up the solution

x=1

x=5

Two solutions were found :

x=5

x=1

Quick I need to finish this and I still have more questions after
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

1\frac{1}{2} or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we know it's a dilation.  So we can use any two points.  I chose V and V'.

V: (3,6)

V': (2,4)

So how we get from 6 to 4?

4(x)=6\\x=\frac{6}{4} \\x=1.5

You can tell it's 1.5 aswell because 4 times 1 is 4 and 4 times 0.5 is 2.  Add them to get 6.  

Therefore, the dilation factor is 1.5.
