C. No Solution
<u>Explanation</u>
<u></u>
The above equation has no solution as the value of x is always mod x which means the value is always positive. Hence to make the equation true, we need value of mod x less than -4 which is not possible. Hence this equation as no solution.
Since, |x| can never be < -4 because value of |x| is always greater than or equal to, Hence this equation has no solution.
Hi!
In my opinion, the easiest way to solve a problem like this is to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and then divide both numbers by the GCF.
So first we need to find the factors of 45 and 72 and find the factor that has the most value that the two numbers both have.
45: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45
72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
It looks like the GCF is 9. Now we have to divide 45 and 72 by 9.
45 ÷ 9 = 5
72 ÷ 9 = 8
So the correct answer should be:
Hope this helps :)
