If 5x + 15 ≥ 0, then |5x + 15| = 5x + 15. The equation reduces to

5x + 15 = 10x

15 = 5x

x = 3

If instead 5x + 15 < 0, then |5x + 15| = -(5x + 15), and the equation becomes

-5x - 15 = 10x

-15 = 15x

x = -1

If x = 3, then |5x + 15| = 30 and 10x = 30, so x = 3 is a valid solution.

If x = -1, then |5x + 15| = 10 while 10x = -10, so x = -1 is the extraneous solution.

The table shows the relationship between the number of Calories Lucie burns while jumping rope and the number of minutes she jum
iragen [17]

Answer:

The amount of calories Lucie will burn by jumping for 1 minute is 8 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data values are;

Minutes {}                  Calories Burned

40                {}            320

80        {}                    640

120 {}                          960

160 {}                          1280

The value of calories burnt and the number of minutes of jump robe are seen to be directly proportional, such that we have;

40 minutes of jump rope will yield 320 calories burnt

Therefore we have;

1 minute of jump rope will yield 320/40 = 8 calories burnt

The amount of calories Lucie will burn by jumping for 1 minute = 8 calories.
