Absolute value equations have more than one solution because when the answer is in abs. value, it is positive, so there could be a negative answer and it would still be positive. For example |-5|=5 and |5|=5 as well.
4+|2x|=-1 would have no solution because you cannot have the equation equal a negative since the 2x is in absolute value.
Answer:
150 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
100 batches x batches
------------------- = ---------------------
8 hours 12 hours
Using cross products
100 * 12 = 8x
1200 = 8x
Divide by 8
1200/8 = 8x/8
150 = x
Answer:
number of dimes is 8
number of quarters is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'd' = number of dimes
let 'd+7' = number of quarters
.10d + .25(d + 7) = 4.55
.10d + .25d + 1.75 = 4.55
.35d = 2.80
d = 8
q = 7 + 8
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
2 × (-1²) + 1 = 2 × (-1) + 1 = -2 + 1 = -1
Answer:
The angle it turns through if it sweeps an area of 48 cm² is 448.8°
Step-by-step explanation:
If the length of a minute hand of a clock is 3.5cm, to find the angle it turns through if it sweeps an area of 48 cm, we will follow the steps below;
area of a sector = Ф/360 × πr²
where Ф is the angle, r is the radius π is a constant
from the question given, the length of the minute hand is 3.5 cm, this implies that radius r = 3.5
Ф =? area of the sector= 48 cm² π = 
we can now go ahead to substitute the values into the formula and solve Ф
area of a sector = Ф/360 × πr²
48 = Ф/360 ×
× (3.5)²
48 = Ф/360 ×
×12.25
48 = 269.5Ф / 2520
multiply both-side of the equation by 2520
48×2520 = 269.5Ф
120960 = 269.5Ф
divide both-side of the equation by 269.5
448.8≈Ф
Ф = 448.8°
The angle it turns through if it sweeps an area of 48 cm² is 448.8°
