5|2x+3|=15

Steps to solve:

1. Divide both sides by 5.

2. Solve for the absolute value.

Now...

Possibility 1: 2x+3=3

3. Subtract 3 from both sides.

4. Divide both sides by 2.

Possibility 2: 2x+3=-3

3. Subtract 3 from both sides.

4. Divide both sides by 2.

Possibility 1: x = 0

Possibility 2: x = -3

First divide both sides by 5. Then you get the answer. -0 or 0 I'm not sure tho

An investment firm invested in two companies last year. They invested $11,000 in Company A and made a profit of 24% . They inves

Tema [17]

First off, "whatever%" of "anything" is just (whatever/100) * anything

part A)

so... firm A got 11,000 invested, turned a profit of 24%, how much is 24% of 11000? well (24/100) * 11000

firm B got 14,000 invested, and returned 15% in profits, how much is 15% of 14000? (15/100) * 14000

part B)

for the amounts above, we get 2640 and 2100 respectively

so, the total profit "amount" is 2640 + 2100 or 4740

the total investement was 11000+14000 = 25000

if 25000 is the 100%, how much is 4740 in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
25000&100\\
4740&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{25000}{4740}=\cfrac{100}{x}$

solve for "x"

How to determine the maximum and minimum lengths of a missing side on a triangle?

VashaNatasha [74]

Well to find the missing side you're going to need the other two. Take the one side and multiply by itself. Take the other one and multiply by itself. Add those two products. Then root it. Basically find something that multiplys by itself to get that product

W L W M L W T L W L L W

W L M M L M T L M L L M

W L T M L T T L T L L T

W L L M L L T L L L L L

Part B

There are 64 possible outcomes. The sample size is 64.

Part C

To find the probability that Erin drinks lemonade one day, tea one day, and water one day, consider all the cases in which L, T, and W occur one time. Because the order doesn't matter in this scenario, these six outcomes from the list represent the desired event: W T L, T W L, T L W, W L T, L W T, and L T W.

The size of the sample space is 64. So, the probability that Erin drinks lemonade one day, tea one day, and water one day is 3/32.

Part D

To find the probability that Erin drinks water on two days and lemonade one day, we consider all the cases in which two Ws and one L occur. Because the order doesn't matter in this scenario, these three outcomes from the list represent the event: W W L, W L W, and L W W.

The size of the sample space is 64. So, the probability that Erin drinks water two days and lemonade one day is 3/64
