Addition is the inverse of subtraction and multiplication is the inverse of division.
Ex: 1+1 = 2, 2-2 = 0
So, to turn this into a percentage, we have to turn this into a decimal by dividing:
80/100 = 0.80
80% of tart cherries are produced in this state.
2/3 of 225
= 2/3 x 225
= 150
9.08+x=25.08
-9.08 -9.08
x=16
3/4x=12
x4/3 x4/3
x=16
4.5x=72
/4.5 /4.5
x=16
Both
The answer would be 0 solutions.
Here, we see <em>|</em><em />x+6<em>|</em><em /> = 2.
Oh wow! A foreign object!
|x+6|... two lines... what is that?
That is called absolute value. Whatever is inside the two lines, must have a positive answer!
Let's pretend we have a machine that has this absolute value function activated.
What we put in, we must get a positive answer out.
Let's put in -6.
-6 ==> BEEP BEEP ==> 6
Let's try 3.
3 ==> BEEP BEEP ==>3
Whatever we put in, if it is negative or positive, what comes out is always positive.
So, for how many values <em>x</em> is |x+6|=-2 true?
None, because the answer <em>must</em><em /> be positive!
-2 is not positive, <em>2</em><em /> is.
