|z - 1|  = 7z - 13
either:
z - 1 = 7z - 13
and in that case:
- 1 + 13 = 7z - z
12 = 6z
z = 12 \div 6 = 2
or:
z - 1 =  - 7z + 13
and in that case
z + 7z = 13 + 1
8z = 14
z = 14 \times 8 = 1.75
So; the answer is: either 2 or 1.75

Given:  |z-1| = 7z - 13

Due to the absolute value function, this equation yields two separate equations:

+(z-1) = 7z - 13, and

-(z-1) = 7z - 13.

Simplifying the first, we get z - 1 = 7z - 13, or

                                               -1 + 13 = 7z - z, or 12 = 6 z.  Then z = 2.

Doing the same to the 2nd equation:   -z + 1 = 7z - 13, or 14 = 8z, or z = 7/4.

We must check both results by subst. into  |z-1| = 7z - 13:

If z = 2, we get 2 - 1 = 14 - 13, or 1 = 1.  Thus, z = 2 is a solution.

If z = 7/4, we get 3/4 = 7(7/4) - 13, or   3/4 = 49/4 - 52.  This is clearly false.

The (single) solution is thus z = 2

Of the $2400 Mr Calvin earned, he spent 3/8 on food, 1/3 on taxes and 1/6 on other expenses. Find out how much all this is in do
sattari [20]

Answer: $300

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Calvin earned  \$2400

He spent  \frac{3}{8} on food i.e.

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{8}\times 2400=\$900

\dfrac{1}{3}\quad \text{on taxes i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}\times 2400=\$800

\dfrac{1}{6}\ \text{on other expenses i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}\times 2400=\$400

Remaining money = 2400-900-800-400=\$300

So, he saved $300 after expenses
