Answer:
x = - 5/2 or x = - 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
|-2(x+2|=1
|-2x-4|=1
- 2x - 4 = 1 or - 2x - 4 = - 1
- 2x - 4 = 1
- 2x = 4+1
x = - 5/2
or -2x - 4 = - 1
-2x = 4 - 1
x = - 3/2
Answer:To figure out the value you have to look at all of the numbers from right to left. You start with the ones place and get prgressively bigger going up by a multiple of 10 each time. So you have the ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, etc. In the number in your example, you have 3 ones, 4 tens (or 40), 1 hundred or (100), 0 thousands, and 5 ten thousands (50, 000). You can write the number in expanded form to help you figure out the value. 50,000 + 100 + 40 +3.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$16 per pound
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the price per pound.
Therefore, we must divide the cost by the pounds.
We know it costs $144 for 9 pounds of pears. Therefore, $144 is the cost and there are 9 pounds.
Divide.
It costs $16 for each pound of pears.
(y-4)(y^2+4y+16)
y^3+4y^2+16y-4y^2-16y-64=y^3+4y^2+ay-4y^2-ay-64
Comparing the coefficients: a=16
Answer: The value of a in the polynomial is 16
