We want to solve the equation:

$3=-2| \frac{1}{4}s-5 |+3$

First, subtract 3 from both sides:

$0=-2| \frac{1}{4}s-5|$

Clearly, $| \frac{1}{4}s-5|$ must be equal to 0, which means $\frac{1}{4}s-5$ must be equal to 0, so we solve:

$\frac{1}{4}s-5=0\\\\\frac{1}{4}s=5\\\\s=5\cdot4=20$

Answer: s=20

firts lets see how many dollars she has

192 divided by 4 is 48 so she currently has 48 dollars.

and she puts in 2 quarters daily

so lets see how much she need to earn

75 - 48 is 27

lets see how many quarters she need to have 27 dollars 27 x 4 is 180

now lets divide 180 by two because shes giving two everyday. 180 divided by 2 is 54 so if she kept adding two quarters everyday it would take her 54 days to get the rest of the money she need to by and iPod.

If 3x - 2 = 13, what is the value of x? 0-5 • 5 0 -3.7 0 3.7

X=5 because you add 2 to both side and get 3x=15, and then you divide both sides by 3 to get x alone, and get 15/3 which equals 5
