The values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions
<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>
The equation is given as:
2|x + 7|= x - 8
Expand the absolute bracket
|2x + 14|= x - 8
Remove the absolute bracket
2x + 14 = x - 8 and 2x + 14 = -x + 8
Evaluate the like terms
x = -22 and 3x = -6
This gives
x = -22 and x = -2
Hence, the values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equality is
Take the term 
to the left hand side. This means the term 
will be divided by
Now since both the numerator and denominator have negative sign the value of fraction will be positive.
Now 
and 
So, the missing factor
Always when division with fractions, always move the decimal to the left.
Answer:
Both lights flash at 1:00
Step-by-step explanation:
they flash together every 2*7=14 minutes
in 60 minutes there are 4*14=56 minutes
they flash together at 1:56
more minutes brings you to 2:00
they flash together at 2:10 (4+10=14)
that leaves 50 minutes left in the hour
they flash three times which uses up 42 minutes
this brings you to 2:52 (10+42=52)
8 more minutes brings you to 3:00
in 6 more minutes (8+6=14) it will be 3:06 and they will flash together
Answer:
Just calculate it. It is very easy.
