Answer:

  x = 0 or 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function can be resolved into two equations. These one- or two-step equations can be solved in the usual way.

__

<h3>negative argument</h3>

  -(x -2) +10 = 12

  -x = 0 . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 12

  x = 0 . . . . . . . . . multiply by -1. Check: 0 -2 is negative.

<h3>positive argument</h3>

  x -2 +10 = 12

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 8. Check: 4 -2 is positive.

The two solutions are x=0 and x=4.

Answer:

I think that would be 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Do everything in the lines before anything else. -2 becomes a 2 and then you add that with the 12 and divide 12 on both sides to get one.

The perimeter of a trapezoid is 39a – 7. Three sides have the following lengths: 9a, 5a + 1, and 17a – 6. What is the length of
Airida [17]
We know the perimeter is the total sum of all sides of the shape, we can use this to form an equation: the perimeter=1st side + 2nd side + 3rd side + 4th side 39a-7=9a+(5a+1)+(17a-6)+4th side.
Collect like terms to get 39a-7=31a-5+4th side
If we move everything but the 4th side over to the left we can solve 
C. 8a-2=4th side is the correct answer
