Marina CMI [18]3 years ago

Hi there! :)

Answer:

\boxed{X=-1}

<u><em>*THE ANSWER MUST HAVE  A NEGATIVE SIGN!*</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you subtract by 8 from both sides of an equation.

5x+8-8=9x+12-8

Subtract.

12-8=4

5x=9x+4

Then, you subtract by 9x from both sides of an equation.

5x-9x=9x+4-9x

Simplify by equation.

-4x=-4

Divide by -4 from both sides of an equation.

-4x/-4=-4/-4

Divide by the numbers from left/right.

-4/-4=-1

\boxed{X=-1}, <em>is the FINAL/CORRECT ANSWER! :)</em>

<em>Have a nice day! :)</em>

<em>:D</em>

<em>-Charlie</em>

<em>Thank you!</em>

Write an absolute value equation to satisfy the given solution set shown on a number line. PLEASE HELP
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: Ix - 4I ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see a black dot in the zero, and a black dot in the 8.

So those are the extremes of our set and are included in the set of solutions, we have that the set is defined by:

0 ≤ x ≤ 8.

Now we want to construct an absolute value equation such that the set {0 ≤ x ≤ 8} is the set of solutions.

The first step is to find the middle value of that set:

The middle value is equal to half of the difference between the extremes:

m = (8 - 0)/2 = 4.

Now we know the middle point, so we can write the equation:

Ix - mI ≤ m

m = 4

Ix - 4I ≤ 4

That is our inequality.

Where the "equal" part of ≤ is for the values x = 0 and x = 8.

i thought of a number. if i subtract 6 from it and multiply the difference by 4 the result is 36. find the number that i thought
SVEN [57.7K]
Since the difference*4=36, the difference = 9
since the number-6= the difference, the number-6=9
Thus the number is 15

Airline fares for a flight from Dallas to Austin are $30 for first class and $25 for tourist class. If a flight had 52 passenger
posledela

There were 40 tourist class passengers and 12 first class passengers.  

Explanation:

Let the number of passengers who booked for tourist class be

=

x

Then, number of passengers who booked for first class

=

52

−

x

According to question,

Total money paid = $25(tourist class)+$30(first class)  

$

1360

=

So, there were 40 tourist class passengers.

Now first class passengers

=

−

x

=

−

40

=

12

∴

There were 40 tourist class passengers and 12 first class passengers.  

As a check

Total money paid = $25(tourist class)+$30(first class)
