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.

A circle has circumference 27 cm. What is the area of the circle? Use 3.14 for .
ella [17]

Circumference = 2πr = 27 cm

= 2 × 3.14 × r = 27

= 3.14 × r = 27/2

so, r = \frac{27}{2} × \frac{1}{3.14} = 4.2 cm

If x and y are two nonnegative numbers and the sum of twice the first ( x ) and three times the second ( y ) is 60, find x so th
stepan [7]
2x+3y=60 solve for x...

x=(60-3y)/2

p=xy^3, using x from above:

p=y^3(60-3y)/2

p=(60y^3-3y^4)/2

dp/dy=(180y^2-12y^3)/2

dp/dy=90y^2-6y^2

dp/dy=0 when:

90y^2-6y^3=0

6y^2(15-y)=0, we know y>0 so

y=15, since x=(60-3y)/2

x=7.5

(We solved it this way because otherwise you get quartic equations and cubic derivatives, yuck :P)
