First, plug in 5 for x:

| -5 * 5 + 12 | = |-25 + 12| = |-13|

Those two lines are absolute value, which measures the distance from the number to 0 on a number line. This distance is always positive.

The distance from -13 to 0 on a number line is 13. The answer is 13.

- 5x + 2y = 9<br> y = 7x
Lorico [155]

Answer:

<h2><u>x = 1</u></h2>

Explanation:

- 5x + 2y = 9

  • y = 7x
  • <u>Insert 7x For 'y'</u>

- 5x + 2(7x) = 9

  • <u>Remove Parenthesis</u>

-5x + 2 · 7x = 9

  • <u>Multiply: 2 · 7 = 14</u>

-5x + 14x = 9

  • <u>Add: -5x + 14x = 9x</u>

9x = 9

  • <u>Divide Both Sides By 9</u>

9x ÷ 9 = 9 ÷ 9

<h2><u>x = 1</u></h2>

What is the value for the missing angle ??

Answer: 9 inches.
Do the pythagorean theorem to find your answer.
Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c2
12 = b
15 = c
a^2 + 12^2 = 15^2
Simplify the equation
a^2 + 144 = 225
Subtract 144 on both sides.
a^2 = 81
Square root of 81 is 9.
