Percent decrease = (change in value) / (original value)

change in value = 9965-10100 =-135

We will just use 135 because the negative just that the value decreased

original value = 10100

So 135 / 10100 = .0134

This is a decrease of 1.34%

Solve. |x+5|>12 Help it would be great

meriva

Answer:

x < - 17 or x > 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities of the form | x | > a always have solutions of the form

x < - a or x > a

For | x + 5 | > 12, then

x + 5 < - 12 or x + 5 > 12 ( subtract 5 from both sides of the inequalities )

x < - 17 or x > 7

What is the solution of 2|2x-1|-8=18?

Maurinko [17]

Solve for $|2x-1|$ :

$2|2x-1|-8=18\implies2|2x-1|=26\implies|2x-1|=13$

Now if $2x-1\ge0$ , we have $|2x-1|=2x-1$ and

$2x-1=13\implies2x=14\implies x=7$

On the other hand, if $2x-1$ , then $|2x-1|=-(2x-1)=1-2x$ and

$1-2x=13\implies-2x=12\implies x=-6$
