Answer:
The two solutions are 5 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the absolute has two solutions because IxI = a means x = a and x = -a
Let us solve the question using this fact
∵ I2x - 8I + 3 = 5
→ Subtract 3 from both sides
∴ I2x - 8I + 3 - 5 = 5 - 3
∴ I2x - 8I = 2
By using the fact above
→ 1st solution
∵ 2x - 8 = 2
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = 2 + 8
∴ 2x = 10
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∴ x = 5
→ 2nd solution
∵ 2x - 8 = -2
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = -2 + 8
∴ 2x = 6
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∴ x = 3
∴ The two solutions are 5 and 3
9+-3 means 9 plus 3 less
basically it is 9-3=6

Let us say that:
x = mass from Earl Grey Tea
y = mass from Orange Pekoe Tea
So that:
x + y = 600
and that:
6 x + 4 y = 4.5 * 600
6 (600 – y) + 4 y = 2700
3600 – 6y + 4y = 2700
-2y = -900
y = 450 pounds
x = 600 – 450 = 150 pounds
Answer:
<span> Earl Grey Tea = 150
pounds</span>
<span>Orange Pekoe Tea = 450 pounds</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
The Midpoint Formula works exactly the same way. If you need to find the point that is exactly halfway between two given points, just average the x-values and the y-values.
