Answer:
The absolute number of a number a is written as
|a|
And represents the distance between a and 0 on a number line.
An absolute value equation is an equation that contains an absolute value expression. The equation
|x|=a
Has two solutions x = a and x = -a because both numbers are at the distance a from 0.
To solve an absolute value equation as
|x+7|=14
You begin by making it into two separate equations and then solving them separately.
x+7=14
x+7−7=14−7
x=7
or
x+7=−14
x+7−7=−14−7
x=−21
An absolute value equation has no solution if the absolute value expression equals a negative number since an absolute value can never be negative.
The inequality
|x|<2
Represents the distance between x and 0 that is less than 2
Whereas the inequality
|x|>2
Represents the distance between x and 0 that is greater than 2
You can write an absolute value inequality as a compound inequality.
−2<x<2
This holds true for all absolute value inequalities.
|ax+b|<c,wherec>0
=−c<ax+b<c
|ax+b|>c,wherec>0
=ax+b<−corax+b>c
You can replace > above with ≥ and < with ≤.
When solving an absolute value inequality it's necessary to first isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the inequality before solving the inequality.

Hope this helps :)
Work in amount of pure acid let x = gallons of pure acid required.
then we have the equation:-
x + 55(0.6) = 0.80(x + 55)
x + 33 = 0.80x + 44
0.20x = 11
x = 11/0.2 = 55 gallons answer
26,862 divided by 407 is 66
Here's the long division way that shows how you get 66
.09:
"of" means that you have to multiply.
1/10 is equal to .1
If you multiply 0.1 by 0.9 you will get .09
