Answer: x = 9, 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
4 | x - 7 | + 2 | x - 7 | = 12
6 | x - 7 | = 12 <em>added like terms</em>
| x - 7 | = 2 <em>divided both sides by 6</em>
x - 7 = 2 or x - 7 = -2 <em>removed absolute value sign</em>
x = 9 or x = 5 <em>added 7 to both sides of both equations</em>
We can express an equation to find the fraction of the catering order that is sandwiches or salads by summing up the fractions of the sandwiches and the salads, in this case, the fraction of the sandwiches is 5/12 and the fraction of the salads is 2/12, then the equation looks like this:
c = 5/12 + 2/12, option B is the correct answer
The most simplified version would be:
all i can really say is it is a y angle
