well, if the expression is simply 12-2, then you would do simple subtraction and your answer would be 10. that would be simplest form. you cannot take it any simpler because there is nothing else left now. your answer would be 10.
Answer:
To find the area of she shaded part we first need to find the total of the area.
L x W
8 x 5 = 40 is the total area
Now we need to find the area of the non - shaded part
Since it is a square all sides are equal the short lines sticking from the sides indicate that
2 x 2 = 4
Now we subtract the total area from the non shaded area.
40 - 4 = 36
The solutions of the equation are -12 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value describes the distance of a number on the number line from 0 without considering which direction from zero the number lies. The absolute value of a number is never negative, if IxI = a, where a > 0, then
∵ 2Ix - 2I - 8 = 20
- At first add 8 to both sides
∴ 2Ix - 2I = 28
- Then divide both sides by 2
∴ Ix - 2I = 14
Now By using the notes above equate x - 2 by 14 and -14
∵ x - 2 = 14
- Add 2 to both sides
∴ x = 16
∵ x - 2 = -14
- Add 2 to both sides
∴ x = -12
The solutions of the equation are -12 and 16
